Twins
Well I bought this set (ATS) They are going on next week. I have the 04. 5 also and it's well equipped to accommodate these twins. I am impressed with what I see on this set except for the cold pipes which I felt should look better than what they did. They came in Black and it wasn't smoothed as well as I would think they should be especially with the set on the web site being silver and looking top drawer. I spoke with Joel and he made that right for me and I applaud their customer service that I received. Some have slammed them but trust me I went through a six month nightmare of waitiing for a set and never did get them and I ordered these on a Wed and had them Fri morning! Give me a break,... find better customer service than that and I'll kiss ... ..... ... ... !! Now granted they may have just had those babies just sitting there and ready to go or they may have been a little proactive and knew someone (me) would want them. A lesson I learned from my prior experience was that I had them lay hands on them and every other part in the kit b-4 I ordered as I wasn't in the mood to be put off again. If your in the business then you should have the product or just tell customers in your advertising that they are just available through advance order and also give a time frame for completion and then STICK TO WHAT YOU SAY!!! What a novel idea to actually deliver on what you say,... when you say. Moving on,... on this set the turbos look really good and are quality units and I am most impressed with that wastegate elbow thingy (internal wastegated) that is their design. Never seen anything like it and is definitely a quality piece. The turbos are exactly matched for a 1:1 ratio at 60lbs of boost. Sweet!! Just what I had in mind. Ck my sig, I have what I think I need to fully match the potential for these twins. Just got a HP Intercooler that's not in the sig,. . will have to update that but other than some Don M injectors, when they become available for the 04. 5, I think I'm ready to lay down some sweet numbers. I'll be starting my own thread on these twins once they're on and I have tweeked the wastegate and decide if I'm going to keep the CLDL in the stack mix or go to the EZ or use both with the TST Twins with the CLDL turned down to probably tow when the EZ is in the mix,. . I'll experiment but unfortunately the strip is closed so it will be a seat of the pants appraisal. My $. 02.
