Default APR Stage III +

any word on the specs and/or details of APR's new Stage III+ kit for a FWD TT...called them today and they indicated the new kit will render between 340-350hp....to be out in summer/fall of this year...

anyone know if it's something we can upgrade to, such as the turbo and stuff or is it a whole kit purchase that we'll have to buy to get the extra 50+hp...

???

Default They are prolly upgrading the turbo to GT30r .....

or something like that...... ATP's STG 4 is using that turbo and puts out that kind of numbers but they use an external wastegate too!

Default Probably GT28RS turbo.

<center><img src="http://www.atpturbo.com/Merchant2/graphics/00000001/Catalog%20Images/Turbochargers/GT28RS-375375.jpg"></center><p>ATP lists the piece at $1200. Getting it to fit our manifold is another story. May involve software upgrade. Look for price in the $1500-$2000 range if there is indeed an upgrade. I'm definitely in if this is the case.

How's the car running?

Default That's just great! 180s will now do circles around the 225s. = P

Every 1.8t is enjoying the bigger turbo, including the damn bug that kicked my a$$ yesterday... and our 225s only got a chip. That's just booty...

Isn't that the St. III spec for the 225, though?
