RE: New member with some Questions!
the 2872r kit looks yummy. what would the PSi be on these kits anyway? low 20's?
i just started to think about the reliability issues that come to play when your running high boost. any opinions about these kits reliability?
how would the gass mileage be on these kits?
(^.^)V - and oh yea, nice cars guys, i'm getting jealous

RE: New member with some Questions!
In case i want to save some money what do you guys think of the GT2x?
in theory i guess i can hit around 250-260whp? would this be better looking at things from a handling point of view? i mean if i were to autoX rather that running around in a straight line.

GT2X only has the Mika tuning, which is horrible. Skip it and spend the extra on a GTRS or 2871R kit from Renn-Art.

RE: New member with some Questions!
what exactly is Mika tuning, and wat are it drawbacks, i just want to understand why its bad, everyone seems against it, haha. I'm only 19 and don't really have overwhelming amounts of money so thats why i'm trying to find the best possible way to get around this situation. I would be willing to pay more for the turbo upgrade if it means i won't have to pay thousands more to replace a dead motor in the future.
I'm also taking a go fast first approach to all of this, i would rather have a stock audi exterior with a nice engine upgrade than rims and suspension, haha. What about these turbos for autoX though, seriously would they lag too much to be effective through the corners?
(^.^)V - your responses have been uber helpful, thanks!
