Glad to see the numbers up. I was predicting about 20awhp gains on the stock turbo and I was pretty close.
How does the car idle? What are your driving impressions?

(I point out the VP101 because the car normaly runs GT109) but the car idles just fine, and there are no other issues. My driving impressions, I love them. on the highway they are great but even light to light they are amazing. the car feels faster all around, and the acceleration is insane. like I said im happy and I back the Cosworth products 100%

so these gains were on race gas and 25psi?
Before the install: tuned on GT Plus 109 from Sunoco with a 104 octane rating. (supplied thru the shop).
After the install: tuned on VP Race gas at 101 octane (b/c we ran out of Sunoco GT Plus at the shop) at the same 25psi.
