Hey Dan, I think? I have a friend with a VR6 turbo...
and his kit is from ATP, He has yet to get it running correctly. Price looks nice, but for the price you may as well not risk the trouble and go for a K04 set up, or save a little more and get a kit from PES or APR. Oh yeah, this is Justin from Fullerton.

Set-up, fueling, & software make a kit run well; not necessarily the hardware (more)...
Unfortunately, ATP's kit only maxes @ 15psi - that's why the stock injectors & MAF housing are supposedly 'ok'.
**Disclaimer: as not to offend anyone, I'll just use the term "tuner", instead of WHICH tuner.**
So... build your own "tuner" T28 kit - buy ATP's kit, source the proper injectors through a fuel injection repair facility, whip up a larger MAF housing, & use GIAC's "tuner"-specific T28 software. If you're handy & resourceful, in the end, you'll spend less than the outright purchase of the "tuner" kit.
Once you find out what size injectors "tuner" use, you should be able to find 'em for cheap - surprisingly so. Armed w/ the I.D. of the "tuner" MAF, find the correct aluminum tubing & have a 'rod shop' cut & bead-roll it, weld a flange on it, & tap it for threads. Again, surprisingly reasonable.
The priciest part is the software. Expect to pay upwards of 600 bux for any "off-the-shelf" turbo-specific (K04 or T28) software application from GIAC. Money well spent, though.
Good luck.
