lol ---------- Post added 02-03-15 at 03:51 ---------- Couldnt help coming back to this. 1- No t3 turbo will make or handle 350rwkw. Even 200kw at the engine with all supporting mods is pushing the life and efficiency of a t3 turbocharger. Really if you want more than about 170/80 RELIABLE KW than forget about a ****ty T3 turbo and go bigger. 2- You wanna pay $400 max for a turbo setup thatll make 350rwkw? HAHAHHAHahahah...man i cant stop laughing. Save up minimum 2 grand and dont even think about making ur vl turbo until then. 3-. I have a GOOD no shaft play t3 turbo, however it has the standard internal gate and dump pipe to suit. I also have injectors and everything else you need to take a non turbo vl to a standard turbo setup. You can expect about 150kw tops unless you get a tune, intercooler, exhaust and ecu for the tune. If you do all that and still keep the t3 I wouldnt go past about 170rwkw personally or you risk blowing the turbo. 4. You can have my turbo and dump pipe for $400 posted.
