    Exactly. And if you're lookin to daily drive on an a3 I would go with the revhard dyno tuned right away on about 8-9psi = satisfied and safe for a daily driver.

    Just make sure you save enough money for a good tune because that will be what will make all the difference. I have the RevHard kit and it is a great daily, but if I were to go with power, I would have went another route. But the was a great learning turbo kit.

    You can always upgrade the turbo. People have put a T3/T67 HO on that manifold and made 700whp.

    Yeah man, there isn't a king dingaling kit when it comes to individual needs. What are your goals and what is the car going to be used for. DD or straight line track whore? For all around goodness I'd say revhard.

    daily driving and parked in the winter months, i just liked how the full race manifold took the turbo away from the firewall ( looks like it dosnt trap the heat as much)

    what kinda number would i be lookin at with th rev hard with a good tune and still be a good dd?

    with the rev hard kit, ive seen many people with about 260-280 obviously it all depends how much boost your running, you can turn it up to like 14psi and have like 300hp, but high risk of blowing your motor, the number stated above is on 8-10psi. im could be wrong tho. just search up Dyno section.

    Ill be nice and give you the link to it.
