Might be better asking in this part of the forum, bro.

I'd boost mine, but I'm kinda 'meh' about it.

today it has a used garrett t3 for testing but tomorrow the 60mm garrett t3/t4 goes on, along with a much larger intercooler. 2.5 inch piping with an hks hi power. yesterday on the dyno in ran 200 horse with 208 torque at 4.5 pounds. i plan on running 11 psi so i cant wait to see what that will do. i really like the feel of the t3 tho. it spools uber quik and maintains great power throughout the rev. it will spool fully at like 2500 rpm. i dont have an ecu yet tho. it should be about 30 days until i can get it from greddy. if anyone knows of a company with a finished piggyback for the xb lemme know

As for piggyback the Aem FIc or Greddy blue should work but no plug n play harness yet.

I'm waiting on my TT
simple kit to come in also.

Hey coryjames have you wired in your fic yet? I've been lurking oround the tc forums seem like your set up will be a beast.

we had a major boost leak yesterday and thats why we were only boosting 4.5 lbs. we fixed the piping and went 8 pounds today and did 230 on the dyno. its a manifold from sciontcperformance.com they are the people that are doing my kit. since it pulled good today and we finished testing and de-bugging, my turbo goes on in the morning!!!! it runs so smooth cruising on the highway and my gas mialage is amazing. in vaccum you dont even know the car is running lol and cruise control works fine with no sputter at all. the factory ecu is badass. plus it sounds like a jet engine. and with the power the tranny doesnt slip at all. it changes gears fine as well. i yanked the e-brake and tried to get the converter to slip in testing but it would just roast the tires. so i held the brakes as hard as i could and no slip at all. this was all part of testing and i'm not retarded i wouldnt do this normallly. i'm just happy as hell with the auto xb. 2nd gear is like 74 mph and it gets there so quickly its amazing. i purchased an hks hi-power to compliment the garrett lol. that friggin thing is a monster!!!!!! its like 8 inches wide!!!if anyone wants the stage 3 bolt on kit that i have on mine just message me. oh and for some added fun. i absolutely ripped a gti today from 40-120 we ran 3 times lol it was great

Its a proven turbo for the 2.4. Kit looks ok I just dont like the cutting of the bumper support and the way the intake has that silicone elbow. Guess thats the best option for now on pipe routing though.
