Twin Charged?

What ever happened with the hahn twin charge kit? I don't see it on their sight. Did anyone ever twin charge or did it not work out?

yes. 2 people have it and donna is one of them. she doesnt have ZZPs setup. the setup worked great out of the shop but someone tried to tune it other than zzp to pull more out of it and fucked up the tune. ZZP has offered to replace the tune for free and fix the **** up but kid keeps talking trash about his car isnt running like it "used" to. although he did say that its running good now

Hahn basically said..

After how crappy the car ran and how hard it was to get it to work right, we threw the twin charged idea out the window.

You would think this kid would know that ZZP probably has the best tune for it, seeing as how it's their kit...

What a newb.

Bill does not talk like that.

Basically, Hahn said that with the complexity of the Twin Charge kit it was not something they wanted to purse as a bolt on production kit. They found that converting to a straight turbo setup was much simpler and more effective.

We will have a twincharge setup running at the track this spring. We will put together plenty of videos and pics of the build as it progresses. Once we get a couple more kits installed this year and start shipping them, it will become more popular. The concept is solid and the kit makes the power of a large turbo without any of the lag.
