I really want to get a turbo for my auto now...

Its fun haha I'm spanking a lot of cars mustang gts, civic si's, audi 3.0s. Plus I can take my car to a car show n win something. Plus the BOV hits everywhere and that was the whole point of me doing this. Just make sure you spend the extra money on ur tranny (tranny cooler and better atf fluid) and a good tune, those made the biggest difference in my turbo build.

UPDATE: Working on finding a wrecked manual tC now. Getting the turbo-back exhaust in spring. Cars away for winter though so probably end of March it will be back out. Bought a red underglow kit for the footwells, obx pedals, razo shift **** and an s2k antenna.... sure something else. Also getting a koyo radiator and ptuning fans and powder coating the pipes black and the valve cover wrinkle red.

OP, where did you get the turbo tuning? I'm from Syracuse, NY and very hesitant of installing a turbo kit on my RS5 because I don't know where to get the tune. I see you're down in Binghamton, so I thought I'd ask.
Nice looking car btw

I went to PTuning only place I'd really recommend I had to trailer my car there though its 6 hrs from me but there truley isnt much around here I couldn't find one decent place anywhere. I spent a month searching for a place to go and I just finally spent the extra money to go to PTuning which was where I wanted to go all along but didn't want to make the trip.

I borrowed my dads buddies truck n he trailered it so like 200 for gas and 550 for the tune but its deff the most important thing for ur car

Already On the Way.....

I'm pretty interested in your swap too, especially how much more power you're able to tune for.
I've been looking into a turbo for my AT lately, I'd rather it be intercooled but I'd be happy with a stage-0 for a bit I expect.

I really like my turbokit for an auto but I have 2 cars and I would rather have one stick then 2 autos.
