2.5" all the way through is a definite opener....

[bassed]

Spools much quicker about 300 rpms sooner It also pulls much harder I think 20+ whp was easily had. Tunning continues later this month

[Vreihenmotor6]

Hows the W/M setup coming?

the 2.5" pipes just look like they're the correct fit, smaller doesn't look right.

18psi @ 3200 rpms all the way to 7400rpms

so you are saying you get 18psi @ 2900 rpm ?

i just dont see how thats possible.

car looks good though. and i heard you are going to be in town this coming thursday.

[djwimbo]

spool is relative, depends on the user as to who believes when it spools.

[speedydragon]

did you change the throttle body as well? Doesn't look like the one that comes on a 01.5

[biketsai]

2.5" sucks on my setup

Yup I'll be down there next weekend at SW. It spools much quicker, I'm not saying #'s exactly, but it's quicker and much more responsive. I tend to watch the road more

I'm planning on installing the W/M sometime in the next 2 weeks. I'm actually debating on grabbing the 7gallon reservoir tank and trunk mounting the pump.

Nope that's the stock TB

You're better off with a 2.25" or 2" with that Turbo, it just doesn't flow enough for 2.5" piping to be benificial, it's probably more of a hinderance.

100% correct. That turbo really only needs a 2-2.25" IC pipe to keep the velocity up as it comes out of the turbo. The 2.5" IC pipes are most likely adding too much volume to the system which will increase lag and if the whole setup is too large it can cause the turbo to be over worked.


The PES and APR stage 3 seem to work perfectly on any of the fmic kits made to work with a k03/K04.


So instead of "guessing" why dont you just use the vagcom to just log block 115
