So you'd go with that over the APR stage III?

APR stage 3 seems to be reliable. There aren't to many GT2X's out there. Certain GT2X's turbos have the reliability edge over the K04's. Main reason for failure on the K03' and K04's is cooked bearings. Some GT turbos are ball-bearing...

i'd rather pump out a k04 rather than the GTs...they are more tuneable (at least to date), and have much more low end power...ask tom about his GT28, he's had to do all kinds of custom fabrications and custom tuning items to get his to work well...but god DAMN does it work well...

the k04 is a direct bolt on and saves us money on getting a new manifold

GT2x is also a direct bolt on kit....


Here is the list of things to be done:


APR FMIC
Brembo Big Brake Kit
Turbo Kit Upgrade (k04 or GT2x)
Samco Hose Upgrade
Forge DV
Stasis Suspension Track
Exhaust System (AWE or APR)


These are planned for the summer...did I miss anything?


Heres the beauty it is going in

I have APR in my B6 and I sometimes notice a studder around 4000RPM.
But not very often.
Im not sure why it does that.
Its running too rich ?

Sway bars...maybe later...the B6 body is nearly 60% more rigid than the B5s....


Also, since my brother owns a racing shop and does F3 he can get me decent prices on parts....


You have to understand I know mostly B16s and B18s and the ocassionat DSM, but I'm fairly new to the audis engine....


I appreciate any ideas on how to be different with the proposed setup..
