Fit lots of big batteries, plus about twenty of these, and you *might* get a couple of psi of boost.

I installed one of these last year, the difference was instant, full 1.9 bar boost now comes on at 1000rpm and stays constant all the way to redline, I actually managed to keep full boost with my standard turbo all the way to 9000rpm. My advice is go for it you will never look back.

I don't understand why people spend thousands on a genuine Garrett unit when they could spend £25 on that baby and get the same gains? Wait... cry

If I buy 2, can I connect them in series to get 110Hp? That's a massive increase for a small outlay.

Why does everyone not have one or even two?
