Post 034motorsports 2871r kit

I don't know if anyone has the 034 motorsports 287r kit for the b5, but if you do how reliable is it and do you recommend another kit? I am planning on getting a kit within the next few weeks and don't want to blow 4/5 grand on something that will make me feel unhappy.

You'll be very happy. Any Garrett ball bearing oil and coolant cooled turbo should last. Arif has had the 2871r for almost 3 years and I think it's been very reliable, and of course he's had a blast owning the road in it too

415cc @4bar will handle just over 300whp so you should be good fuel wise. If you are talking about maf sizes, you need what the sw is written for otherwise the car will run poorly if at all
