I believe (I could be mistaken) that the messages stated he was
doing a free flow exhaust.  
  Rob, our experience up here in the PNW shows that a 3" DP is
needed for maximum performance.  However, If your only running
1.8bar and have a good exhaust then your fine.  But when you
start 2.0+ Bar with higher flowing turbos especially, and very
free flowing exhaust systems, then the 3" DP is needed to
maximize your benefits.  A nice change to make to tide you over
if you only want some increase in performance is an ur-q DP. 
Its bolts right up (CAt mounting is different though but from
turbo it bolts up) and is larger and better constructed than the
5ktq DP.
