It is a dual charger set up, not twin turbo. it will use the stock m62 and a turbo as well. turbo+supercharger. I too am waiting on it. but,.. i have been waiting for over a month just for prices. so just because you want that kit,.. that you obviously know nothing about. you should most likley leave hahn out of the story. Grow up

Got to it before I saw it......
Another side note, why bicker about something, it's the set price and that's what it costs....you need to think of the price of steel rising, gas costs for shipping all the materials to Hahn, labor.
This thread needs to be locked for a pointless discussion.

Yes that is alot of money for parts and Labour but............
After seeing how many transmissions that YellowShowBalt went through when he supercharged his 2.2 I just don't have that kind of $$$
But I would'nt say it's not worth it to spend $4000 for those kind of Hp Gains

sry guys, i suck at typing, i tried to go back and edit most the ****. im 19, i couldnt afford the s/c so i planned on ls and adding **** to it. since like 2005 and my car is a 2007. i worked hard just to buy the car. now its just like, **** it.. but it just sucks it is so expensive.. and little things, whats the ******* point of giving the ls 4 lug instead of 5. little things like that. i dnt think 4 lug matters, till ur trying to find a wheel that looks cool.
what the **** MR. HaHn.. i can afford it.... why is there like no one prasing your system, i look everywhere. they prolly like it but hate the fact they paid 3500, when in a bit of time ZZ is comming out with a twin turbo that they wished they bought.
I look on youtube, theres like 2 videos. and one called it a baby turbo. Your price is rediculous. I could ****** buy it. everyone here could buy it, but they dont want to spend 3500 on a system that they dnt know anything aboubt cuz not many people talk about it. Hell mkurley installed ur system and next thing u know his car was on a to truck.
dnt be like, that i can afford it. and when ZZ comes out, i'll spend my money well on somen worth it. I'm glad u could boost the car to bout 200, sstill short of the sc.. ZZ claims are well above that.
so mabye u should go work on that

Hahn thurbo kit is the ******* awesome! you get better gas mileage, go a hell of a lot faster, less torque steer, easier to launch and best of all, ITS ALL ON THE STOCK MOTOR, so no need with costly upgrade's you keep talking about. i would highly reccomend this turbo kit for anyone who wants to go fast, save a lil bit on gas, and have a lot of fun!

a turbo kit for 4000$ isnt bad if you look at it the right way.
ton of time to design- people gotta get paid for that
garett turbo alone is a bit of money
turbo manifold alone is alot of money
tubing
the Tuner that comes with it. it costed garrett alot of money to get that tune.
etc.
if you buy a top of the line exhaust you can pay well over 2000$. for what...15 ponies?
now personally im going to do nitrous becuase I don't need my power all the time..nitrous + bolt-ons+ tune for under 2500$ ill be much faster than a turbo car (when spraying) but when im not spraying..well i can still cruise the highway just as good.

for your info.. the turbo hahn uses is about 1400 alone.. plus the R&D all the top of the line hardware and the tuner for the 3200 (if you look around) kit... isn't too bad.. get your panties out of a bunch and your head outta your ass..
you can make a turbo setup for about 1600 or so .. but you wont have a top of the line turbo.. but you can get it done..
but common seriously flipping out on hahn... do some research before you do that.. and zzps kit is for the 2.0 not the 2.2 and it's running considerably higher boost then the 2.2 kit.. jebus christmas

step 1:buy the garett kit (the one that doesnt come with a tuner and injectors)
step 2: buy 32lb injectors
step 3: install everything (dont drive around yet)
step 4: contact vince at clear image auto for his tune and tell them what you have done
step 5: connect tuner to car
step 6: email the info it gathers back to CIA
step 7: reconnect tuner and upload updated tune
step 8: have fun

wow dude u have no idea what your talking about....3500 dollars for a turbo kit is ridiculously cheap i mean go look at parts for any other car they are about the same if not more and this also includes the tune which can usually run you close to 1000 dollars in itself
yea he has no idea what he's talking about .. the only type of cars who have cheaper kits is hondas.. and thats cuz they have a million and one kits for them and they're still only like 2900 or so

They are the first to have a turbo kit if I'm not mistaken right? They have the right to get what people will pay to have the turbo now. Just you wait till other companies start coming out with kits. Thats when price wars start. Then we can be like the civics, turbo kit for 1200.
Not only are you paying for the turbo your paying for the right to be one of the first turbo 2.2's
And I for one would just like to point out that I cannot afford a turbo, even if I wanted to get into extreme credit card debt. No credit company would give me a credit line that high. I honestly don't think you know how things work man...

Hahn is great anyways.....they gave me a new dream....buy a saturn sky, and get their stgIII turbo kit... OR get a stg IV, and their engine package, but thats like an extra $2k-$3k for 100 more horses. I'd be VERY happy with a 350hp sky 
OOO, you gotta lower it and get some new rims.
make it look kinda like this
