I have a 2876r on my kat and it spools amazing. Pull boost by like 3500 probably. Not laggy and comes in nice. Butt dyno is like 250 on 8 psi right now.

Pros: spools amazing, not laggy

I had a 2871r on mine and loved it. It was a dog below 4k on motor alone, but it made 400 at the tires. On the bottle with 50hp jetting it was a different animal and made close to 500. It ran like a raped ape with that combo. 20+psi at 2500 no problem

Pros: loved it, 400hp, 20+psi at 2500
Cons: dog below 4k

Rating 5.0

Yes, its great! Off the bat the car has a bit more character, the exhaust note has a slightly different tone to it, you get more pop and crackle on the shifts and you hear more turbo noise. The powerband is smoother, stock it seemed peaky and fell off a bit towards redline, with this setup it just keeps pulling much harder. Overall, totally worth it!

Pros: more character, smoother powerband
Vehicle: Volkswagen

Around 82k I went with a full gtx3071r... My car now has 110k and still runs like a champ. I drive it hard. I roll race it. I take it to the drag strip. It’s seen countless rolling antilag and NLS. Never a days problem never even a CEL in its life. I’d drive it anywhere

Pros: runs like a champ, no problems
Vehicle: Volkswagen
Mileage: 110000 km

APR Turbocharger

About a year ago, I installed the DTR6054, HPFP and LPFP, APR's Intercooler, intake, and of course the necessary tune and TCU tune to run the car on 93. I have quite enjoyed it over the last year, but it did lose some of the punch at low RPM that it had with the IS38 turbo and Stage 1 tune.

Pros: enjoyed it over the year
Cons: lost punch at low RPM
Mileage: 30000 km
