So I'm curious to know what kit is a better bang for the buck.  It seems like the ZZP base kit is the way to go with an upgraded turbo.  

So what's everyone's take on it?

I've been looking at them both also...

I'd say to get an intercooler also?

I don't have any experience with the Cartuning kits but I do have an upgraded Z7 based kit.

I chose to go a little further with mine and asked for a full 3" DP and a Crossover/WG setup that would allow me to run a T67. Matt gave me everything I asked for and the quality of the parts I received is topnotch. Matt is very prompt at answering emails and questions and he presented himself to me as someone who was just as concerned with making my car what I wanted it to be as I was. I also chose to do a one off F-body intake on the Passenger side and Matt and his guys made me some one off IC piping to go with it.

It's a little more involved, but with the short piping section they added just before the TB it's not too bad.

If I had to do it all over again, I would get a zzp kit over the ct kit.
Ya, I make good power now. But I could use some more. Plus the wastegate is in a better spot on the zzp kit.
