haha I was being mysterious. I didnt want to say anything and spoil the surprise when you break every td04 record in the book!

What's the word on 13Ts? Possible?

[Atrosity]

For sure! I just got in a few more sets of turbos and a guy is picking up a set of my 15G's this sunday so hopefully this weekend or next I can whip out the set of 13G's and the set of 15G's that people are waiting on so I can start work on the 19T's.

I wish the guy that is picking up a set of my 15G's on sunday was able to dyno it right away, but he isn't planning to install them until march :/.

Lol don't make me regret purchasing from ips!!

*hope you do, hoping for the best from ya!!*

lol austin. Sounds like you've got a good test car for the dyno there to help sales

I did some research and it definitely looks possible for us to do. One option is using the wrx compressor housing as others have done and the other would be using 9b housings. I think the wrx compressor housing would provide the best power gains so I just need to find a set of wrx turbos now. Getting the 19T's out I will admit are a higher priority but there is no reason we cant work on a set of 13T's too if we find a set/someone sends in a set of cores.

Haha well if you have buyers remorse from buying turbos from ips you can always buy your next set from us . We've been super busy working on getting 15G and 13G's out and now a local guy needs a set of K03 Audi turbos for his S4 rebuilt stat so we've just been swamped (definitely not complaining! I'm so thankful that things are going well!). We are really hoping to finish up the other 3 sets of turbos in the next 1-2 weeks and then we can finally work on some 19T's!

That we do, nothing like using an already crazy powerful car to test bigger turbos on

I should have 19T money by the end of this month

Sounds good. Thats right when we should have a few sets ready!

We've been experimenting with black powdercoating but I'm wondering what people would prefer or dont you care either way?
Here is the black:

[MADMarc]

I know I'm not ready to buy yet or anything but if you guys offered a ceramic coating for heat dissipation I would be all over that.

[92RT-TT]

Thats not a bad idea Marc, I'll have to look into that. Right now the powdercoating is supposed to be good for up to like 1600 degrees or something so hopefully it will be durable. If we can find a place to do ceramic coating we could def think about offering that at an additional cost.

Here's a pic of ZachG03's 13G's almost completed. The CHRA's just need to be balanced and then I can put the compressor housings on and the wastegates


Next in line after these are done is a set of 15G's for flyingvr4 and then its 19T time!

[92RT-TT]

Also I'm happy to announce we are going to be venturing into the 13T to 19T conversions as well! Check out our website for more details. We will however be offering the first 5 sets to 3SGTO members at a discounted rate of 1400, After that the price goes up to 1500 for a set of 13T's converted to 19T's for our cars.
