The differences between the Garrett and the Alpine kit (I carry both of them), is the Alpine is more of a OEM quality install, although it does add quite a bit of HP, and looks good under the hood (like it was made in the car), it comes with tuning and costs a bit more.

The Garrett kit is of higher performance, and a bit higher quality, it comes with a intercooler and such and is better off for the 2.4L since it does NOT come with tuning but costs less.


Direct links to both:

Garrett Kit (Retail: $3,200 | Our Price: $3,000): http://www.tntautosport.com/store/in...0a32c782a40165

Alpine Kit (Retail: $3,500 | Our Price: $3,350): http://www.tntautosport.com/store/in...0a32c782a40165

Why is the Garrett kit higher performance? If it's because of the Garrett turbo vs the one used in the Alpine kit, they can also supply the kit with a Garrett turbo. Check with Alpine on this.

As for no tune being better, that's only true if there is no SMT-6 tune available for the 2.4. There will be in 3 weeks, from Alpine.
