VTT Stage 2 update / Torture Testing

16R said:

You have torture tested it commendably but how will it perform in its, possibly, most common configuration?

As a pre-orderer that is still holding on, one question I have is: How does the VTT stage 2 perform as it is sold on your website? That is, with the PFS LPFP, UM tune, and 91 octane?


Speaking of the PFS LPFP, any updates on it? There is still no website for PFS.

thanks

PFS is extremely close to launching. They wanted to get all the products in stock ready to ship before dropping the site live.

As for the turbo needed supporting mods, a turbo does not care what fuel you have in the car, what fuel pump is on the car, what tune is on the car, etc, etc. A turbo does one thing, it gets spun by the exhaust, and it moves compressed air into the motor. That is its only purpose, a larger turbo, can move larger amounts of air into the motor. If you wanted to to try to run 30 psi, on 91 octane with a single LPFP, the turbo would be happy to do so. It also would not care that you would be looking at a blown motor in short order. This is one of the most frustrating things about people saying "a turbo needs X upgrades to work properly" It actually does not, it will work without them, you upgrade your fuel system, and other parts so you can SAFELY make the extra power without blowing up your motor. We suggest you run these upgrades because we want to see you make more power safely.

If you ran the car on 91 only, and stock pump, it would 100% make more power than a stock turbo up to the point of running out of fuel, at that time it would become unsafe. It's your tuners responsibility to find that limit.

This is looking so promising! I got my eyes on VTT

I’m interested in these, but not sure I can afford it [emoji23]

He he he. Yes, we put the UM tune at $999,999 due to the fact of not having pricing squared away with them at the time... I am just going to remove it from the listing for right now til these are ready.

Hey Vargas can you give us an update with a possible eta on this?

did anyone ever get these?

I hear there is another black friday sale.
lol

What a joke this whole thing has become.... a shame really.

I can't believe anyone would still have a deposit on one of these when EQT and Littco have come along with great turbos.

Well, guys, patience is a virtue, and many have been extremely patient, and you will not be disappointed. Our finished MQB unit has arrived for fitment and final tolerance checks. We can say we could not be happier with it. Every change we outlined has been followed to a T, and with great precision.

If you want a copycat hybrid with all of the copied factory junk left in place you have your choice at various price points, none have matched the performance of even our test unit, or come close to our price point. We could have done exactly what others have done. Bought mass produced copycat housings, claimed "custom" wheels, and all the other nonsense being pushed, collected our money, and cheered. Instead, we went clean sheet and endured 4 samples before finalizing our unit. The best part, the 2 samples we tested performed flawlessly. This includes multiple 10 sec 1/4 mile passes, road course action, and now a near 160MPH 1/2 pass at NFZ CA last weekend.

Many have scoffed at us during this period, while we were not happy about the time it has taken, in the end, it does not bother us as we know we did it the right way. For the people who still have deposits, we will be refunding you an additional $200 off your $1499 for your patience before your unit ships. Getting the best bolt on solution on the market for $1299, yes you are winning...

Specs of the final unit are as follows.
Turbine wheel custom 9 blade design:

• Inducer - 56.5mm
• Exducer - 53.6mm

Compressor wheel 6x6 Billet:

• Inducer - 54.1mm
• Exducer - 71.4mm

Features:

• 100% NEW CASTINGS of our own design, NOT mass produced housings
being shared by all, laser engraving their name onto them. These are our
own castings with our logo cast into them. No one else has them or
will get them.
• ALL factory restrictions removed. Including turbo outlet muffler,
restrictive factory snap on inlet, etc. Inlet and outlet optimized for
maximum flow
• Fully upgraded internals included thrust bearing and thrust assembly
• Every unit includes our 3" silicone inlet adapter, for universal plug, and
play fitment
• Retains all factory oil, and water line fitment
• Retains downpipe fitment across all existing downpipe brands
• Proven unmatched performance by any hybrid on the market at any
price point
• Price point well below other copycat options
• Best spool characteristics, while retaining top end performance
• No Core charge, keep your stock unit, do what you want with it

Pictures of the production unit are below. We have greenlit a full production run and will update shortly with a concrete availability date. The road was long, and sometimes we wanted to throw in the towel, but we endured, and we are rewarded. Too little too late? When bringing a superior product to market there is no such thing...

We will make a brand new thread when we have a concrete date on the full run of production units arriving to us... In the meantime, we will install this one, and continue to beat up on the car. 12K+ miles across the 2 samples we have installed, including ten 1/2 mile passes last weekend, not a single issue yet...

As always we have no interest in arguing with people or mudslinging, if that is your goal in this thread you will be ignored... There are many options on the market, if this one isnt for you, we wish you the best...

Looks nice! Thanks for the update

Mudslinging - an attempt to discredit one's competitor, opponent, etc., by malicious or scandalous attacks.
