"The addition of this system can add as much as an additional 20 percent increase in horsepower (56% increase from your unmodified car) about and beyond the TSI Superior Turbo Kit."
I dont know how I feel bout that for the gt. 56% isnt even gettin you 200 at the wheels. c2 costs more but im sure its well worth the few extra bucks.

looks like a good kit if you are the type of "racer" that isnt aiming for a 10 second car but something that will give everybody else in your town a run for their money.

well the thing is C2 is not CARB legal as for that matter, i dunno of any turbo system that is CARB legal except XS which is only an assumption...and they make it for only trhe GTS. BTW, whats the problem with XS if you have a properly tuned car.
