Hello,
Currently running a gt15, which used to throw 19 psi, and now throws about 17.. Im guessing(hoping) its going to die.
So would like to get myself a t2 kit ready to run some real boost!
Was considering the td04 jump, but I think ill take it in steps..
as far as i know I need...
the turbo
the manifold
oil line?
Would be nice to know what else is required for the job, and also if anyone is selling, let me know =]
cheap as chips please . I already run on veg.

just throw a td04 on
i doubt you'll notice the difference between the gt15 and t2 apart from the increased lag

I would agree....be like taking a k14 off and putting a t2 on...pointless for all the effort
a gt17** would be a good middle ground

Gt15 makes 17 psi. T2 makes 24-28? I wont notice that?
But i guess you know better, wonder howmuch a td04 setup will cost :o

t2 can make 30psi...
quite sure a gt15 will a lot more than 17psi!!
and you will notice a lag too. gt spins up much better

PSI means nothing!
A TD04 running 20 PSI is still going to shift more air efficiently then a GT15 or T2 running 30PSI!
