Question about ATP GTRS

[lostkhan]

Hi, now before anything. I have searched and Read The Noob Performance Sticky before asking the question. Even reading and searching everything there are still some questions a Person have to ask before Doing Something He Doesnt Know anything About.
I am totally New towards Turbos. I ran n/a Acura TLS with bolton mods.
I read about ATP GTRS turbo. When i was looking for it online, i didnt see the whole kit. Only the turbo and 2 hoses. Does that mean that we ONLY have to replace the stock turbo with this and just run a Reflash? Or is there a catch? I was thinking to trade in the car to get something faster but if i can take this to 350AWHP, i dont need another car.
Help me out guys Thanx

GTRS is not going to get you 350awhp, not anywhere close, even on race gas. To even get near or over 300awhp, you will need all supporting mods (manifold, testpipe, TIP, full exhaust, FMIC, clutch, software, injectors, DV, ...) AND race gas

[A4ringedONE8T]

To get 350awhp, your going to need a 3076R and at minimum a built bottom end

It hurts but he's telling the truth..

[Syrus5o]

gt35r built bottom.

[HTA A4]

^ LOL! That MIGHT do it..

But seriously, I have the GT71r (same turbo, just a larger compressor wheel) and I bought this kit CLICK ME!
Correct me if I'm wrong but I am probably in the 275AWHP range with this and I love it!

[lostkhan]

Well then i should just go with my 1st plan which was to get Jaguar StypeR .Reflash it and smaller S/C pulley and im good.

I ran one on the highway a few months back, it had exhaust dont know what else. Pulled him by about 3 cars 75-130

Just checked your Thread and Mods. Im sure You Can. But how much are you to the wheel?

No clue, havent dyno'd the car. That was with a 3071R as well, car is easily 20-30whp stronger now

[HTA A4]

How much do you think I have Shawn? I'm going to hit up a dyno in October Can't wait!

[absolutegtr]

jaguear types = ford taurus in disguise

[HTA A4]

LOL!!!

[Papachristou]

jaguear types = ford taurus in disguise

well put bro! they drive terrible BTW.. faster than most of us but not enjoyable to drive

[Papachristou]

PM me when you do... ive been wanting a 3+ kit but just cant justify $5k on a 5 year old car... im kinda leaning towards the gtrs or gt71r kit

i wonder if a turbo blanket and test pipe wrap or ceramic coat would help the reduce spool time on the 71r?

[HTA A4]

I spool to full boost by about 3900. It's really not that bad

[Papachristou]

how much longer/more boost do you hold over a gtrs?

[A4ringedONE8T]

how much longer/more boost do you hold over a gtrs?

None ... and a GTRS will get 20-21psi around 37-3800, 71R around 41-4200

[Papachristou]

so help me out shawn, whats the point?

[HTA A4]

I haven't gone WOT yet for a full pull because I'm still breaking in the clutch but by tonight I should have 500 miles on it. Do you think that's enough?

[ehfour]

What PSI are you guys hitting around 2500 to 3500 rpm?

Round town and WOT

[A4ringedONE8T]

so help me out shawn, whats the point?

There both the same, 71R will have later spool and make .3whp more up top in a perfect world

[A4ringedONE8T]

GTRS will have 14-15psi @ 3500, not much at 2500 but who's ever at 2500???

[lostkhan]

well put bro! they drive terrible BTW.. faster than most of us but not enjoyable to drive

So figure out a way to keep me with my Audi Man
Tell me what i can do with $4000 budget. Otherwise My plans include
Jaguar STypeR
Cadillac CTS-V
OR
EVOLUTION X (Have to check with the insurance for this)

Me when Im pulling away from the Million stoplights in Vancouver :(

[LampyB]

oh man please please don't get a caddy or a jag! absolutegtr was serious above that a jag is a fast ford taurus in disguise.

an evo is cool but unless you purchase a new one they're ugly as sh*t. anyway, even getting around 300AWHP in a quattro car is pretty f*cking badass. it'll be easy to do in any FWD car, and overall do you really need it to be that fast right away? put $4K into the car and wait another year then build the engine and get the rest of your power. whatever you do, keep the audi it's 10x more of a car than any of your other choices.

dude, this doesnt make any sense. what year models are you looking at because those are all $35k+ cars! your audi is half the price of those!


hmm $4k supporting mods will eat up that. $6-7k could do it if you are a DIYer. and your car would stop better, handle better and be faster than those cars listed PLUS you could say im not a rich beyotch dbag in a cts or jag.


shawn, would you do the 440s like with the ecode kit or the 550s and piece together your own kit?

[A4ringedONE8T]

550's, 440 file if your using REVO I would recommend at the moment. If you need help with the parts let me know

[HTA A4]

I went through E-code and you can choose to upgrade to the 550's but it's like $200..

[ziggituning]

Sorry to thread jack, but this may help, I am just finishing up an install of the GTRS kit on my 2004 ^sp Q. the supporting mods are:

-GTRS turbo
-ATP manafold
-TIP neuspeed extreme
-550 injectors
-FMIC
-007 forge DV
-REVO flash
-test pipe

Shawn,

I know I will need to do the clutch but the car has about 18000miles so I want to ride this one out as long as I can. Aside from the clutch possibly failing from the power, what other mods should I think of doing to keep reliability to a maximum. How much power and boos can I run without worrying about punching a hole in the block (running stock internals)

What WHP have you seen with similar setups?

[AudiA4Turbo22]

yes u'll be good for about a week, ur trading an A4 a great quality car by the way for a Jaguar? from a company who's ready to go out of business? A ford? a horrible quality car? R U Crazy LOL? we've had 5 XJ8's last one being a Vanden Plas in a rare mint green metallic and that thing broke down twice a month. Piece of crap with a capital C!

[dougyfresh]

That is a very under-powered 3076R.

You shouldnt have any problems with a stock motor with a GTRS totally maxed out

[dougyfresh]

For pump gas ...

You can hit that number on pump gas with a smaller turbo.

[ziggituning]

Thanks for the reply Shawn, I think you had done some work on my wife's car, I bought it from Hamman in Fla. Blue A4 with k04 upgrade. Anyways thanks for the reply, I'll post the car when it's running.
