EGT's when to high will warp the turbine shaft causing turbo failure. It also lets you know if your running lean or too much boost. When someone says they are running a T3 or T3/T4 it means that they have changed the stock K03 turbo which comes on the car and replaced the stock manifold with a manifold for the Garret Turbos. So basicaly they've swapped turbos to a much more efficient one.

Thanks for the infor as regards EGT. - I was aware that running a T3/T4 means they changed from the K03/K04 they originally had - what I wanted to know was what does the Super60/70 trim mean for the turbo.
