Do my numbers look any good?
I had a friend I met on here with a VAG-COM come down a run the block 120 on my car last night. I have the mods listed below, NO CHIP YET, and it was about 30 degrees outside, dry , and clear.
I think the actual stock numbers are:
177hp/174lbs. torque, After mods, and last night I got:
184hp/202lbs. torque, AT THE CRANK.
What do you all think, I think the Torque numbers are pretty good, but I am kind of disappointed about the hp number. He is emailing be the graphs and all the numbers tonight or tomorrow, so I will have all the data then.

HP is fine, a 3" DP isn't oing to add alot of HP, it add's torque and lets the turbo spool sooner

VWMIke81, Thats funny because the shop I took it to told be the opposite. They told me without a chip and upgrading to 3"dp/cat, I would lose low end torque but gain high end hp. I was kinda thinking the same thing you said. And obviously he was wrong.
Is it true that if I dont have a chip yet, and I go 3" Turbo back I will lose power and my car will run poor. They also told me this. Any Suggestions?

Are you running the stock catback? I think if you get something bigger like 2.5" or 3", it will increase your HP some more.

Yes I am running stock cat back, and was thinking about going with 2.5 instead of 3" but not totally positive.

Well with a cat back bolted on you will see some better HP numbers. The 3" DP lets the turbo spool quicker so you get more torque down low doesn't let it flow that much bette rthough cause the stock exhaust is still onthere so you're not gonna se ehuge gains in high end HP. Also th chip will make th biggest difference. My dyno numbers are in my sig and that is with v.06 of GIAC's chip which doens't have as much torque. My car is bone stock besides the chip even down to the air filter
