Nice Jordan.

1st the Tial's came out for our platform. Then the ATP's followed. Good to see the continued elevation of the platform. Let the community know how these offerings from GH work out.

Are they making them, or subcontracting to someone else?

Also  (and an odd side note/observation) whether you know it or not, you're morphing into the club. Club being that your collective mods can no longer be considered "cheap".

Ha! Welcome aboard the addiction. It's a dasterdly, daunting challenge that is not easily overcome. Gratz!

Congrats! You will enjoy them for sure. Mine are still whistling away very happily.

Curious, when you ordered the ATPs, did you ask specifically for the .5 BAR wastegate/actuator? By default they come with a 1 bar canister which makes tuning them a b*tch apparently on these cars. When I was researching turbos, I actually had a long talk with LMS's second in command Andy about what makes their turbos proprietary... he said the order them with the .5 cans... otherwise they won't tune right.

Technically the ATPs are bigger but have a heavier wheel setup... so you get boost lag etc..

The GH turbos are much better designed for these cars, especially on a stock motor.

I did order the .5 bar actuators when I ordered ATP but they messed around for a month before I contacted Matt and was offered a very lucrative deal on his turbos. Gearhead always sticking their head out for the platform. Saved huge over the ATP's

Yes, his turbos are significantly cheaper... the shop that put mine on said "We can't even get one turbo for this price from our suppliers"

Gearhead is hands down the best.

Now to park it again in the garage... where it sit... all alone... and rarely run this time of year...

Well started a new job and waiting on my new daily driver from the company. Until then the SHO is my daily... decided it needed a clean up. Also did some dremel work to the SHo engine cover... it fits again!

Purchased 13+ Exhaust Manifolds.  To ensure they are the good ones I said I was a 2014.  They're being shipped directly from Tasca to MaxPower Automotive for custom hand porting.  Excited to get my OEM 10-12 Exhaust Manifolds out...thanks to BPD1151 I never knew they were so restrictive.  Equally so for showing all the hard work MaxPower puts into their craftsmanship.  Why I contracted them to do mine. 

I did want Mike's new manifolds but they haven't test fit them yet...plus Mike will be the first to use that custom set.  Why I went the route I did instead.  Looking to have them on my car in a few weeks hopefully.

I should see a massive drop in WGDC% with them and the EPP Dual CAI.
