I'd just go straight to the EQT Vortex, but you will need fueling upgrades to take full advantage of that turbo.

Ok ok could i still run it without for alittle ?! I live kinda deep in pa so driving to get that corn is little far

You will need to get a custom tune to run this turbo, so I would get all the fueling upgrades and other supporting mods first.

It's gonna save you money in the long run to get all supporting mods first or else you'll have to spend $500 or more for a new tune each time you add a significant mod like a fuel pump.

APR advertises 395HP/334TQ at the crank for the low torque tune that I have.

Why did you choose the low torque file?

I've had both the low TQ files for stage 1 and stage 2 and really like the power delivery. Also the clutch was a consideration even though I know I will have to replace it down the line. I might try the high TQ file in the future but for now I'm really liking the tune I have.

Cool.

A Stage 2 Tune puts out more torque than the is38 tune. I wouldn't have thought that is the case, but it is.

Yeah I was surprised as well about the TQ but the curve is very flat. With that being said, I am going to get the high TQ file flashed on Friday. I'm going to try it out and see if I like it, if not the flash back to the low TQ is free.
