Default Dubworks tuning kit for the 1.8t - 284 whp with 91 octane

<center><img src="http://a9.cpimg.com/image/E7/CD/26306279-6622-028001E0-.jpg"></center><p>unfortunately only for the transverse guys right now. This turbo is between a GT-30 and GT-28R (not RS like Eurocode). That's about 320 crank hp using a conservative 13% drivetrain loss. This was on a Mustang dyno which does provide for generally lower whp numbers. Too bad nothing like this for the longitudenal guys.......

That's a pic of the exhaust manifold!<ul><li><a href="http://forums.vwvortex.com/zerothread?id=1179030">Link to thread</a></li></ul>

13% drivetrain loss is pretty conservative... but cool tho

Default Expensive considering the ATP GT28RS "HW only" price of $2399.00.

REVO SW will add another $500+. But still very reasonable.

A "conservative" loss percentage would be more on the 21-23% side.

Default I didn't think the fwd drivetrain loss was that high. 21 to 23% seems to be what people quote for

That's why I said "conservative." Typical losses are 17-20%.
