Turbo Upgrades?

Greg,


IMHO and IME, a bigger turbo and a better EM will work
with your software but not optimally. If the ECU can't
adapt the output values to the "hardware", you
seriously run the risk of transforming your engine
into a bomb...

However, depending on the software that you have (I
dunno what basis Ned is using for his stage III), you
could have good results.

Otherwise, try to get an RS2 turbo, IMHO it's the best
bolt-on available turbo upgrade. A K26 can provide
pretty good results as well but not as good as the
RS2.


Just my 0.02,
