There is a thread titled "ATP gt30 car is smoking ALOT" midway down the page. (http://audizine.com/forum/showthread.php?t=309614&page=3) I think most of the guys on this forum who have the kit have posted in that thread.

Since this kit uses a larger turbo (GT3070r I think) than the APR and AWE kits (GT2871r), there is potential for more peak horsepower with the ATP kit. However, build quality and everyday driveability seems to be far superior with the APR and AWE kits due to material quality and lack of a reliable tune for the ATP kit. Furthermore, since the GT3070r is a bigger turbo, it will take longer to spool up (700-1000rpms higher) and deliver power. I have driven the AWE car and can say that the power is truely impressive and the driveability and reliability is second to none as the car was driven on the edge all day at the track without any hiccups.

not even close, the ATP stuff leaves much to be desired. This kit would also need connecting rods, a good tune, and other things as associated hardware with the kit in order to run it at full potential
PS, the ATP designs are not that great either, although it has admittedly worked out for the A4 1.8T guys

I'll let the two guys running the AutoSpeed kit chime in on how a GT3071-WG feels on a 2.0FSI -vs- bone stock. If you've driven an ASP car you'd be surprised that a 3071 is in that engine compartment.
This thread is the beginning of many re-posts on this particular product (ATP 'kit').
