Not to seem like a dick, but this coming from the guy who had to dig two graves in his backyard for 2 audis already. I'm just saying, maybe you weren't keeping it REAL COOL.

 

^^^lol

 

One other thing you need to associated with tubular vs cast stock type manifold is to make sure you matching the appropriate turbo with the appropriate manifold and required power. If you want to continue to have quick spool time you will definatley want to stick with the short runner cast manifold. While people using a Gt35, obviously are looking for large Hp. Therefore, you wont want super quick turbo response from the cast short runner. A tubular manifold will match much better with a larger turbo that is aimed toward hard hitting higher rpm power and torque vs linear peak boost a lot quicker. For instance a small turbo would suck with a tubular manifold.

 

i was basing that on the fact that is you ran 30 psi on a k03 or k04 it wouldnt do ****, or it would blow up

so that would mean you would be running a larger turbo.. (yes i am aware there are more cfm's with bigger turbo's)

it was just a generalized statement

 

ok, so anyone got straight numbers without all the bickering? wheres Avant80@2.6? wanna know what he thinks.

 

Good luck. The highest dyno run I have seen was Jeffs @ 337awhp.

Also, it's an online forum where people will voice their opinions and have bouts about what they think is right. Always take anything you read in a forum with a grain of salt.

 

lol keep it low just in case. 300-350hp and 25-30psi boost. dont end up fck'n up your audi.

 

but if you get it to go higher than that. record it and brag about it!

 

haha i love reading that

 

CAN WE PLEASE GET BACK ON THE ORIGINAL SUBJECT... WERE TALKING ABOUT THE BLOCK, NOT TURBO... MAKE ANOTHER POST ABOUT THE TURBO IF YOU WANT TO TALK ABOUT IT. THANK YOU
