    Vast 600+700+800+ & 1000hp kit's

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!



    Log manifold kit is in the final stage and will be fully completed this week end, final pics will follow.



    Our goal was to produce a full GT kit as followed. No cutting, shaving, relocating of any kind retaining 100% a factory look with ease of installation.


    That's what we did!..... "The only GT based turbo kit on the market whether factory manifolds are being used or custom manifolds to meet all these needs"



    Things below you the customer should ask when shopping for a turbo kit, kinda of like a check list..


    The new turbo kits does as followed, No cutting tabs off the engine, no shaving on the tranny, no cutting on the engine mount brackets, no relocation of anything & the X1 intake, stock air box & RS4 air box remain in the factory location without any modification, tons of clearance so no heat wrap needed anywhere, all factory lines retained except the oil feed and coolant feed line we provide. Installation is the quickest and easiest of any setup to date even faster and easier then installing K03ss on a K03 car, honestly there's really nothing else that can be done to make things quicker and easier, we installed the full kit for the first time on our mock up motor is less then 1 hour including manifolds and down pipes. All factory components are accessible either the same as factory or in fact easier.



    Things below you the customer should ask when shopping for a turbo kit



    Note.... All DTS bars do in fact fit with ease, for the guys that need the appearance of factory equipment & need to pass inspection the X1, factory air box & RS4 air box can remain in the stock location without any modification, all EVAP lines remain in the factory location including the line that goes to the lower inlet pipe.....



    Kit will come complete as followed, Schedule 10 SS Vband manifolds with merge collectors, Tial MVS waste gates, mandrel bent 1 piece 3" Vband down pipes NO WELDS with stainless flanges that have a male and female machined on the flange surface for a perfect seal, all stainless corrugated flex joints "NO MILD STEEL HERE" , GT2860r, GT2871r with Tial Vband turbine housings, aluminum inlet pipes, all clamps/couplers, lines and all hardware/gaskets associated.





    Pricing $6700.00 complete $7995.00 with fueling & custom tune.
    .



    Mike the owner of Vast order his B5 S4 the day they were released & as most know he's been tuning & modifying this platform since day 1, tuning your B5 no matter what the setup is won't be a problem.



    Full fueling kit includes Bosch EV14 60lbs @ 4 bar injectors, 4" cold air intake, RS4 accordion, plugs, coolant temp sensor, maf housing & custom file, please add 200.00 to all fueling kits to convert Bosch to Hitachi sensor...





    For those who wish for GT2871r or more a Billet 48lb GT2868 HTA compressor wheels like the ones shown below can be obtained while maintaining at least a GT2860 spool....


    .................



    We are now offering 4 kits, all kits complete with manifolds, Fully one piece no welds mandrel bent 3" Vband down pipes, Tial Vband MVS gates, aluminum inlet pipes that fit exactly like factory & the Evap system stays intact, all associated hardware,gaskets,coupler,clamps ETC..




    All turbochargers CHRA are factory assembled untouched Garrett Dual Ball Bearing, the 1000hp kit gets a HTA billet comp wheel...





    Log Style Manifold Kits....


    600+hp Vast Custom Hybrid GT turbos with custom high flow compressor & turbine housing great for the guy looking for a GT kit with good low end awesome mid-range and good top end, more power then RS6sss at less boost.... Schedule 10 Log manifold, Complete $5850.00 with fueling & custom tune $6995.00......

    700+hp Vast Custom Hybrid GT turbos with custom high flow compressor & turbine housing great for the guy looking for a GT kit with good low end awesome mid range and great top end, more power then RS6 Hybrids at less boost.....Schedule 10 Log manifold, Complete $5850.00 with fueling & custom tune $6995.00...
    /i/gt25605.jpg/]

    Tons of room for clearance around everything, nothing in jeopardy at all, everything 100% serviceable the same as factory and actually better/faster. Dump tubes are aimed towards rear of the car a tad instead of straight down causing them to be even quieter, we also can add a baffle but there not loud at all once fully opened at peak boost only, your engine and exhaust is way way louder

    Note.....External dumps are far superior to internal dumps. External dumps on these cars can hardly be heard over the the exhaust and high pitch engine noise, they only open at @ full target boost, we have baffles for the ends that can be added if your worried about any noise. $100.00 for a set of baffles welded on......




    Vast Custom Flange, slipping the schedule 10 inside the flange makes for a much stronger piece

    [URL=http://img716.imageshack.us/i/sdc10633t.jpg/]




    Header/Merge Collector Manifold Kits...



    800hp Vast Custom GT2860RS turbos great for the guy who wish to install rods and turn the boost up, decent low to mid insane mid to top end......Schedule 10 fully tuned merge collector header,
    Complete $6700.00 with fueling & custom tune $7995.00...
    ...

    1000hp Vast Custom GT28ss billet compressor wheel great for the guy who wishes to go all out, spool like or better then GT2860ss but with power capable of exceeding GT2871Rss decent low to mid insane mid to top end.......Schedule 10 fully tuned merge collector header, Complete $7950.00 with fueling & custom tune $9550.00...

    .



    First To Incorporate a Fully Tuned Hand Made Merge Collector Of This Kind For The 2.7ltr






    Never had a failure to date but in case a 100% LIFE TIME WARRANTY "REPLACEMENT OR FIX" ON ALL WORKMANSHIP!


    Shipping not included....

    All kits were designed to have a very broad power band with a flat TQ curve...

    I'm also working on a completely custom GT turbo right now that will take the place of the GT2860rs but won't have the lag and will have more overall power. Custom turbine housing, custom billet wheel, custom comp cover and custom turbine wheel. Spool will be better then the GT25 and have more mid to top end then the GT2860rs, I know hard to believe but it will. Will be released soon!

    So the car won't make that power, it is just capable of that power. Is it possible to post how much power the car will actually make with these kits? I understand it depends on other mods, but lets say we took a stock car and did each of those kits. How much power would each one end up with? Thanks

    Eagerly awaiting this. Any idea when you will release specs and logs?

    Understeer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car and oversteer is when you hit the wall with the rear of the car. Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall and torque is how far you take the wall with you.

    Those aren't bad estimates of what I've seen on here at the crank. I'm talking dyno graphs as evidence.

    Also I'm sure you know that if you bolted one of these kits to a completely stock motor you would have a very shitty car. Between the stock catback and the mounts it wouldn't be pretty. I get what your saying though, on a basic build without meth and all those RS4 frills.

    2554 and 2560's are very good on a stock block, with good software and a 7200 rpm rev limiter bump.

    But the real question is, the efficenty of these plumber type manifolds Joke, !!!!


    I guess me an a lot of others would really want to see real actual data on these cheaper manifolds. So much emphasis was put whe war was opened about gt kits, mine has a better collector, mine is back purged, yada yada...

    I'm not saying they are shit, but we dont know if they are good either (at least better than stock ones)

    I guess with the better manifolds and the 68mm billet wheels, you have enough flow to get to 1000 Crank Horse power, but yet again nobody has done it !

    To get to 1000 HP, you will need better than 2.8 heads and Rs4 parts...

    The material is better, they are larger, they have a cleaner curve and transition. Despite the lack of data, its pretty obvious that these should be better than stock.

    Even if NOT, they are STILL a bolt on manifold that connects right to GTs with no modifications. Even if they perform exactly as well as stock, the simplicity of it is a significant part of the benefit.

    Obviously tubular is better. Better flow characteristics all around (usually), but not everyone can afford what they are sold for. These manifolds as part of this kit at this price is basically unparalleled if you don't want to get custom and do it yourself.

    Previous to this, if you wanted to do GTs you HAD to pay for tubular manifolds or get someone to do the flange for you. Even if these perform at the exact same level as stock (which I'm confident that they will perform better, if only for size and for the thermal properties of the materials used) I would still not think twice about buying them, just for the simplicity of being able to slap whatever GT on them that I want.

    We've seen very nice gains on RS6 turbos already with these manifolds, actually just today a customer was on his local dyno and spit out a number we've never seen before or even close he's running E85.

    Plus we don't have to push the tune or boost as hard, each car ramp up faster verse stock manifolds with these manifolds, it's pretty simple as the factory stuff is near 35% smaller then the exhaust port which are a log style mani also.

    These manifolds, Agtronics manifolds, ARD manifolds, Autospeed Manifold, AWE manifolds all have this in common ie runner diameter is the exact size as the exhaust port off the head. The potential of these will usually always will be seen when things are at there limits especially on larger turbos with factory manifolds.

    My GT2560s are still pulling like mad at 7600rpm and Vast has taken their old kit with these to 8K, I will post the old dyno chart from Mike's GT2560 car, the flattest tq curve I've seen to date and power never stopped climbing...

    Plus we don't have to push the tune or boost as hard, each car ramp up faster verse stock manifolds with these manifolds, it's pretty simple as the factory stuff is near 35% smaller then the exhaust port which are a log style mani also.

    These manifolds, Agtronics manifolds, ARD manifolds, Autospeed Manifold, AWE manifolds all have this in common ie runner diameter is the exact size as the exhaust port off the head. The potential of these will usually always will be seen when things are at there limits especially on larger turbos with factory manifolds.
    That makes perfect sense. I would really love to see a side-by-side one day. Stock vs these on the same car... Its asking a lot, though.

    I'm buying them anyway, haha

    Here's the tail section leading to the turbo, 75% larger in I.D

    Remember manifolds where designed for K03 turbos..

    Yeah that is a substantial difference to say the least. While I appreciate this picture, and it definitely gets the point across, I meant side by side dyno results

    It's to hard to do side by side because we can't mount this stuff to factory manifolds but a good comparison is the eliminator stuff that's proven to be a far to large for the factory manifolds in comparison.

    Hey Vast,

    Could you please comment on the 700 & 800 hp kits for daily drivers. Does the addition of power or rebuild of the engine change the way my car will drive to work in the morning in stop and go traffic etc. (besides being waaay faster).

    Also, could you give a ballpark complete price for (assuming I already have clutch & IC to accommodate):
    1. All parts and labour to install the 700hp kit
    2. All parts and labour to rebuild engine and install 800hp kit


    Finally...Do you need a stg 3 clutch to hold this power, or is your stg 2 enough?

    Thanks,
    C

    uh... you will probably want their stage 4 or something equivalent. stage 2 clutch is definitely not gonna hold this kind of power.

    I can't speak for their kit. But i have GT2871Rs on my S4 with a fully built 2.8L and I DD my car no problem. Sitting in traffic, cruising on the highway, bombing backroads. Drives amazing, better than stock or Stage 3 IMO. With my VAST tune the power is VERY smooth and their is nothing besides the extra vibrations from solid mounts and the somewhat annoying twin disc clutch that would make it bad to DD. I have put close to 8k miles on my car since i got it back from VAST in march and have had no problems with the car.

    I own a stock S4 and one that has GT25s on it, the stock one doesn't do anything better then the one with the GT25s on it. The GT25 car is as smooth as silk and gets 25+% better mpg then my factory stock car. The car has a perfect idle and zero issues at any rpm point, I also have 1000cc injectors installed in my GT25 car in case I ever go E85. The car could of easily came from Audi this way, people would never know there's a 700+hp capable car sitting in your driveway especially one that's pretty quite.

    That's good to hear-reliability is key. Also on a side note-love Vast and your products, but you often use the word "then" when it should be "than". Please do not charge extra when I order the kit. :)
