I'm new to these engines and I'm not sure how the intake manifold is designed so please take it easy on me. Where does the boosted incoming air from each turbo meet and equalize? It looks like the intercooler is almost like two intercoolers in one. Is that true or is the intake crossconnected there? OR... does the intake manifold take air from both throttlebodies and combine it all there?
Is that price....INSTALLED? or am I just getting my hopes up? Also, all you other Cali guys, how would you avoid getting sent to the referee station from this? Anyone have a house in nevada that I can use as my primary address?

The "Don't drive like an @ss so you don't get pulled over trick" usually works...otherwise you'll need to uninstall the kit, get the ticket corrected, then install the kit.
Many guys in Cali are running 'illegal' FI kits...you just need to be carefull and keep the spirited driving to a minimum...and go full out when you hit a track.
I was boosted and not carb-legal in cali, I'll be honest, didn't really giva shiet I loved boooost, gunned it all day everyday, literally. See a cop, slow down, no cop, gun it, boooooooooooost. Radar detector FTW! I miss my Boosted car, but looking for a TT in the future for the G, and if I do, yes it will be through Sam the man @ GTM since he been taking care of me since 07 with my other G.
Looks very nice. I like the power for a simple setup. Dumb question. Does the remapped ecu throw any codes or cause a check engine light? My stupid state won't let you pass inspection with any codes. Also I assume you have to drop the motor to do the install.
No check engine light, 100% oem drivability and functionality, Installation does not require the removal of the engine .

Its more cost effective, our intention were always to have that option form day one it just tooke longer to get it done .the factory ecu can really do a good job with 600 cc injectors and up to 600whp . the fcon is still a great option for more complex builds

The price is for the parts only, Your are looking at around 11k for tun key set up installed 500 to 600 whp on a vq37hr .
