More like a write up a few pages long with some pics.
You know like what you did how you did it mistakes you made along the way.

Thanks guys

BzeA4 How long will your setup hold full boost RPM wise? Also when do you make full boost 2-3K? Do you have any boost creep?

Thanks JR

ummmm ok first off
Put a manual boost controller on and went to 22psi or something like that and blew the turbo in a month (don’t do)
Begged my dad to let me put a new more “efficient” turbo on instead of Audi installing a new ko3. he said yes and that’s where it all started. MAC Auto Sport got me a custom t3t4 and the stuff to go along with it
T3T4 turbo
Greddy FMIC
RC 550 cc injectors
Custom intake with HKS Super mega flow filter
DP with no cat
Apexi AFC
Defi boost gauge
Shitty exhaust manifold
Tial 38mm external waste gate and dump tube
Greddy turbo timer
Ran that for a day and blew that turbo. I sucked in part of the maf into the turbo and destroyed it not ever 18 hours after it was done. So back to the shop. Got a new turbo, fmic, and oil lines, and also a apr chip (before that I had stock chip pita). Car ran well, about 230whp but needed lots more work. Then the shitty exhaust manifold broke. The flange holding the turbo on separated, so I got a new one for free. Then came time to pass emissions, remember I have no cat. So I went with a 2.5”DP already on, then to a 3” highflow cat to 3” all the way back with no muffler. Drove the neighbors and the cops crazy so one went on 3 weeks later a magniflow muffler was installed. Next the afc was removed and a new chip was in the works. I took my car to 303 in Denver where my friends from Audi just opened up a new shop. There they tuned my car with a new chip from atp. They installed a new clutch from spec, stage 3+ with a light weight fly wheel. They also replaced many vacuum lines, did the timing belt and all that goes along with that, head gasket, and fixed something in that back of the engine leaking oil(I forget what), and a apr snub mount, and a stratosphere dv. I had the stock dv on there before just turned around backwards. They tuned my car at elevation at 25psi. when my car got to texas where im attending college I was pushing almost if not 40psi (cant tell boost gauge only goes to 35psi and I hit that at 5000rpm’s) and I kept on blowing off ic pipes. So now it’s turned down to 30psi. I also installed a stratosphere ss. Then the shitty manifold broke although this time it was the wastegate flange that went. So as I type it is getting a new manifold this time a atp one and a new wastegate still tial 38mm. next mods are stoptech bbk, wheels, and suspension. I know I forgot something cus its 1am and I have been studying all day and im going to bed now so sorry for the bad grammar, spelling and forgetfulness. sorry its long

Just remember hw is easy software isnt. For ever turbo u choose you are going to need very specific programming with tons of supporting mods as you get into the bigger turbos. I runa t3/t04e 57trim .63a/r with stg3 exh wheel, 034efi standalone, and basically everything else is homebrew. I have the hardware to hit 11's, but I'm tuning myself and still learning, should make 525 crank hp on race...What I'm say (and bragging ) is that you dont need a t3/t4 to hit ur high 13's goal...you can do that with ako4 if you have a very good tune with all the supporting mods
