[urq] Re: [s-cars] RS2 Turbo Group Buy

Stephen,


The RS2 turbo involves the same mods as fitting a water cooled K24/26 
(including Innovative modified K26) to your urquattro.

It is indeed a good alternative to those turbos, but you'll need some ECU 
tweaks/WG spring in order to take full advantage of that beast...

HTH,

Mihnea
