Re: Anyone here running ATP's 3inch Turbo back?? (tobyc)

i have only the 3" dp/hf cat and I noticed an icrease in power. I dont have my dyno pics or graphs yet, I got in block 120 last night, And with the mods you see below, basically intake, dp/cat, forge........... I went from stock:
177hp/174lbs torque Stock to
184hp/202lbs torque with listed mods. No chip yet. TT shifter not installed yet.
SO I think that the dp really increased my power as you can see. Plus I am running stock exhaust.

Make sure you have new motor mount bushings, or you can experience rubbing and hitting on the power steering rack. I did, until I put the mounts in last night. BTW , the mounts totally cured the problem, they are awesome and the vibration isnt as bad as I thought it would be.

You do realise that when you get T3/T4 you'll need a brand new downpipe I hope...

Re: Anyone here running ATP's 3inch Turbo back?? (BORA20VT)

I was the test guy for it and am loving it. The power is mostly felt in the top end and the sound is nice and throaty. Quality is excellent, don't know about the install since they did it (wasn't there when they did it). I have a few rattles right now because the hangers weren't in when I had it installed, but yours should come with them.

I'm sorry but you don't have a sig so I'm not sure what turbo you are running now - I assume it's the stock K03 or K04... If I assume incorrectly - I was working with what I was givien...
The DP for a K03/K04 turbo goes straight back and down to the rear of the car. The exhaust side of a T series turbo (T3 or T3/T4 in perticular) is pointing towards your passenger front tire - their downpipe takes a big turn down and another turn back - it's like a large donut that's been cut in half and fitted to make it change direction from right to backwards... So therefore the K03/04 DP has no chance in fitting with T3/T4 turbo.
