Upgrading

Hi there, I have an '01 TT w/ fvd ECU, Fabspeed (loud) and air filter. If I go with K24 + GT2 I-coolers, Does the ECU program that I have will bring the best of the new turbos or do I have to re-program the ECU ?
Thanks,
RV

I had stage 3 and stage 4 FVD set ups... unfortunately tahts how the tuners get us.. each time u will be looking a a few $K...
U simply have a basic program for the stock k16s...
U dont really need the gt2s Ics... I had them... the $1100 is not worth the upgrade... they are only 10% better then stock ICs.... and still fin design(very poor)... u need to get into BAR and Plate ICs... like mine... but then thats if u do a 600 HP set up...
a k24 will produce only 550 to 570 crank HP... MAX.... an k24 hybrid will produce considerably more...

So, where would you say I'm at in HP ? (fabspeed loud, BMC AF and FVD ECU)? Is it worth to buy the K24s ?
I fitted the TT w/GT2 Wheels / tires, how do I post them here ?

With the above I would say you are around 490-495hp.with k/24's and ecu you will get around 530hp.

they have to be made.... I have an account with the company that makes the cores.... but the end tanks is the problem.... lots of labor and somewhat expensive...

The cat is out of the bag 900 hp!! What turbos are you using? I worry about the lag when you get to that power level?
