car is a lot faster with this in
|
|
Cons:

more lag than stock

spools slightly faster than the VF30, don\'t know if it\'s worth over the VF30 in terms of just street and highway driving

3200 full boost

falls off a bit up top

It was a great turbo when I first installed it, as lag was minimal and the power over stock was no contest I would recommend this with supporting mods to any one who was ready for more power than stock.

Pros:

Great power / spool / midrange!
|
|
Cons:
|
not enough top end
|
|
This turbo is an excellent choice for those who want a streetable turbo. Look for 100whp gain over stock with a full setup to accompany the turbo. With a FMIC the lag isn\'t even that bad, full boost coming on at ~3600rpms.

If you want an excellent turbo for the street then this is it. I installed this with all the supporting components and a tmic and the difference from stock was awesome. I have been to Thunder hill raceway a number of times and this turbo is great for the track as well as on the street. The only con I can think of is gas mileage becoming worse and turbo spool. Although the spool up is good compared to most aftermarket turbos.

I love this turbo, you can feel a great amount of difference from the stock turbo. I really don't notice the lag or anything, it kicks in at the right time. But if you like more power in the top ends, this turbo is not for you.

some people say it goes flat on top end, with right tune and right boost controller it will hold full boost at low end.
