Hey Guys,

So I’ve been looking into PI/Helix overdrive kits for a couple of months now…
And I happen to come across the Hydra Performance kit…
Anybody have any experience with this kit…
I know Hydra is reputable and believe they put enough thought into this product…
Just looking for any real world users here…

It’s been backed by Ken from Wedge, so that’s promising I suppose!

Just came out. I'll be getting it at some point and nice I have all his stuff for the most part. Hydra is a N54 savant.

I haven't used it, but from an engineering perspective I love the approach Hydra took with that. So simple, it's obvious in hindsight. If I had the n54 style rotary pump, that's the direction I'd go.

Turbos head inlets outlets heat shielding crank hub pcv cowl filters differential csl brake adapter etc etc etc.

I've had numerous chats with them on how to spec other things basing off Omars car. Obviously not everything is available for purchase.

Big fan.
