The product doesn't have a description or pictures because the kit isn't officially launched to the public. We're currently working on the instructions which is why the other information hasn't been added to the site. The 180 and 225 kit is very different since the 225 has a different turbo, and a completely different tubing set-up.

It is the size of the turbine housing. The smaller the number the faster the spool, the larger the number, the more power up top and greater flow. It really depends on the turbo you choose if you should go with a .48 or .63, no street turbo needs a .82.
t3 housing come in .48 .63 .82
t25 housings come in .64 and .86
the .64 is about the same size as a .48 and .86 is close to the .63.
T3 housings also have a larger turbo inlet than a t25 and will flow better. Most T3's dont come with internal wastegates and just about all t25 housings do.

if you have some skill, you can make your own apr/evo kit for a 180 like this.
just need a couple pipes, a map sensor, and a simiular core (treadstone makes a nice one)

RE: Tcarbon FMIC vs Forge Motorsport FMIC 180 HP Quattro
I agree. On the 180, since you don't already have a SMIC on both sides... instead of trying to trun all your own piping around your engine bay... you'll be better off with a "C" style intercooler with an inlet and outlet on the same side so you can plug and play.
By "plug", I mean install. By "Play", I mean drive around and pick up milfs and throw the kid in the trunk.
By "Trunk", I mean that sorry excuse of a backseat we have. lol

to be honest i really dont know where or what kind of MAP sencor i would need to get, i would rather not play around like that. but i would be nice to save a bit of cash doing a customer fitment. plus i cna get forge silicone hoses.

You wont need a new map. The 28rs and t3 60trim are very simular in power but the t360 will spool faster and make just a little less hp overall (10-20hp) at 1/2 the cost. A pagparts.com kit with everything you need to bolt it on should be around $3-3.5k
