Cool.  Can't wait to hear about how it performs.

Sweet man I can't wait to see what you make on them. Those look like old evo wastegates. :hmmm:

Excellent choice!  They have units ready to ship people!  All you will need to buy is a gasket kit.

How do they compare to the ATP +2?

Matt gave me the specs but I can't remember... he would need to reply. He says they should be better matched for our setup than the ATPs.

I wish these were out when I did my turbos in August. I didn't trust the atp's and I couldn't wait for the upgraded wheels. I'm excited to see how they work for you.

Both sides flow about 30% more than stock and will have no problem making 500 whp on e30 in Denver with the little bit of compressor margin I left in the mix.  These turbos are all you will ever need unless you are doing a built engine..
