Kevin, does it make a difference I have RS flywheel? Yes, I have X50 with a wastegate adjustment only. No kit. Interesting thing is I am showing 1 bar with wastegate adjustments alone (set on stock flash). Is that possible?

How come no one answers the questions? What are the whp #'s for the 2a kit? What does it include?

Around 530 WHP, but this kit makes big power very early boost starts @ 2k RPM so you have more power earlier than most kits out there. It is a nice package great for daily driving . When I have the funds I will do the next step up to 600 WHP which is just a fueling kit, intake pipes and a reflash I believe.

Keep in mind as you increase the HP, the drive train may need to be updated to handle the HP. For instance the GT2 has internal oil spraying and beefed up shafts with steel synchros in the transmission. So you may want to consider an update. There is a point of no return.

What turbos does the 2a kit use? I'm thinking about upgrading at some point in the future. I wonder if it would be worth going for an Alpha or just an upgraded compressor wheel on the K16s i have in there now. To be totally honest, I'm not sure how much more power I need. I think that my current setup (500 bhp), may be at the limits of what i'd like to be driving on a daily basis.
