I'm interested in buying one of the turbo setups in the near future, and having read some of the posts on EvoM, I feel like I would need to experience the power and driveabilities of these turbos first hand before making a decision.

If possible, I would like to sit in your car while you step on it a bit. No need for crazy and illegal runs. Just accelerate while merging onto a highway so I can get a rough idea of the car's power. I would also like to see how it drives off boost, and talk to you about the reliability of the car.

I can't offer much, but at least I'll buy you lunch or something. And I promise to take a shower and wear clean clothing.

Thanks in advance who anybody who can help out . Hopefully I'll be able to experience both setups and have a more solid idea about which way I want to go.

 

Do you plan on drag racing a lot or is this a street car? A GT35R might be a tiny bit overkill (annoying) for the street.

 

I know I'll probably end up with a GT30 setup, but I wanted to experience a GT35 setup before I make a final decision.

That way, I'll have no regrets.

 

You could contact DSG and ask about their customer cars. I know they've at least done some GT35 or GT40 Sti's and I think some evos as well.

Not sure if you can arrange a ride in one though.

I agree that this not a good street setup.

 

You should also give the TME turbo or the White Rabbit a look. Near stock spool time with some added bonus power. The WR is fairly new and unproven yet, but the TME has good results.

 

I have the TME on my car right now. It's a great turbo, but I guess I'm just looking for that rush that a bigger turbo can give me.

 

If you are looking to get rid of it, I might be interested.

 

I'll keep you updated.

Hopefully I'll find somebody who can help out. I really want to get an idea of what the setup(s) will be like.

 

Bump.

Help anybody?

 

well i have GT35RL its been sitting in my basement, i guess it doesnt help ya any much. but.. it ll go in this sometime this winter.
