Dezod and Ptuning are both great companies it's your choice on how much money you want to spend and how much power you want your setup to make. Either kit is easy to do maintenance on and easy to modify if you want change anything.

So have fun making your decision either company you can't go wrong.

I've had my Descendant kit for over 10000 miles along with their built hard and it still pulls hard every time i lay on the throttle. I'm very happy with my purchase and hope you good luck. If i was you i would talk to each one of the shops to ask about the turbo kits and buy the one that gives you more assurance.

P.s i also have the Descendant exhaust and its sounds great with my turbo

You could always buy my setup for less... but if you HAVE to buy new, I'd be inclined to go Descendant.

Not too bad of power for an auto. Autos should be 200-225whp with tuning and supporting mods.

since you're asking opinions i'd say ptuning. i'm not a fan of worm clamps, rubber drain lines, and plastic diverter valves.

wow thats unfortunate, I didnt know that. I dont really see the problem with the plastic Bosch BPV, as their still make good numbers using em, but yeah definitely not a fan of the worm gears and SS drain line>>rubber

not bad at all, what i mean though is i suspect she will make the same power pretty much as all the rest on 8psi (auto i mean). she dyno'd at 6psi which of course the numbers are going to seem low for an auto cause most start out at 8psi (generally speaking). I see her making 230-240@8psi possibly more with a little tweeking.
Hell at one point iv even made 220hp @ 7psi on my 5speed(there was alot wrong with the set up at that point...lmao)...down the road i end up making 270hp @ 8-9psi

My question is, were they able to lock the tranny into a gear? if not that itself will fubar the readings. not many shops know how and its really not that big of a deal to do. Id like to see the dyno sheets, if they didnt lock it you can tell right away.

in anycase boost is a learning experiance...give it time and a little dough, and youll be replacing shredded tires in no time...lol

i used to work for audi and they use the same unit on all their turbo cars and i have seen many failures of this unit. granted everything fails i know i just saw honestly hundreds of thousands of these fail

You not correct in all that your saying so I'll shed some light on this for the people interested. From the tone in your post you make it sound like the DESCENDANT kit comes with cheap components which truly is not the case.

Below is a picture of the components included in the DESCENDANT Turbo kit


The oil lines you refer to are all made by GOODRIDGE and come with a life-time warranty for DESCENDANT customers. None of the other kits mention come with that!

Here is a section from the GOODRIDGE catalog where they give the description for the components included.



For those of you who don't know who GOODRIDGE is they are one of the leaders in AN-Plumping for the Race Car & Aerospace Industries. Check out their website at: www.goodridge.net

i didnt mean to make it sound like i was slamming your kit. i just mean my personal preference is tbolt clamps SS braided lines and a different diverter valve. im sorry i offened you rob i was just giving my opinion to answer the OP's question.

I feel the same way about wormdrive clamps...not a fan of em...seen many many SS wormdrives strip out. Not saying that these will cause I dont beleave i have used that specific brand, so i really couldnt judge. If it works it works!

lets not start yet another sponser war huh

the one thing i think people mess up with the t-bolt clamps is that an eager person could potentially end up crushing there i/c tubing if they are not careful. I've seen it happen many times. Oh and by the way i haven't had any problems with my Bosch bpv but i'll make sure to let everyone know if something happens.
