In the quest for more reliable power for the 180 TTQ>>
does anyone know if this setup as Giac Usa explains would work and would be worth it?
It would seem alot less $$$$ then throwing $5200 out for a APR stage 3 kit. Keep in mind not I am looking to build a crazy street racer, just a little more power for daily driving.
Current mod todate:
Giac Chip, Samco TIP, TTDA, ****, Boost machine, Borla.
Thanks.<ul><li><a href="http://www.giacusa.com/news.php?newsid=51">http://www.giacusa.com/news.php?newsid=51</a</li></ul>

i am pretty sure that 300/300 is what they quote.
i havent seen their 'production' or advertised numbers, but 2 years ago 300hp about 300 torque were the dyno numbers I saw.
I think that a maxed out 225 gets about 290 hp - that is with just about everything done...

I don't see how they can squeeze 300hp with the parts they list. Maybe 250 more like
If you go with Revo, you can do Stage 2 program, and you have to have a 4bar FPR, aftermarket exhaust and Diverter Valve. I figure that I can get up to 264hp, which would be fairly quick for a lighter FWD TT. So now I am sitting about 219, with Schwing Stage 2, with Revo stage 1, and a diverter valve, plus the VTDA, throw on an exhaust that yields on the low end another 10% horsepower, the FPR, and the programming that yields 10-15% on top of the aftermarket add-ons I just listed, and you have about 264 or thereabouts and well under $3k total. Revo Stage 2 only costs another $50. Oh yeah, you have to have an SPS3 device, which is another $300 or less. I did not even mention Samco hoses, T-Carbon FMIC and a DV relocate, which of course will give even better results. I'm not sure if Revo has a program for a KO4 swap. I would venture to think they probably do though.

i was talking about pro-imports
they use a hybrid kkk turbo, iirc. I just took a look at their site, but did not find info.
I was there last week, and saw a blub in their waiting area about the kit. I have linked the kit previously. I will post the link if the search gods co-operate.

here is the thread from 05
<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/tt/msgs/1234810.phtml">dan from pro-imports also chimes in. The turbo appears to be a k04</a></li></ul>
