    That's what I said matt, upgrade once and be done. Plus it bolts on. If I still had my fwd tt and these were out when I upgraded, I would have bought these. I bought 17g's because that seemed to me as better than 15g's back 5 years ago. And I didnt want to upgrade twice. I still wish I would have seen what they really did. I only ran them on pure pump and 18psi was the highest ever. I trapped 123.

    92 Eagle Talon TSI AWD Auto = 10.61@127.8 (1.4 60ft)
    94 3000gt SL 8:1TT 5spd getrag = 11.87@123 (1.8 60ft)
    91 3000gt VR4 13gs = 11.61@115 (1.59 60ft)

    Damn this DR750 talk! I am TRYING really hard to keep my savings account "healthy" but this turbo is a damn drug that keeps showing up and wanting me to get her turbines flowing.

    A week ago I convinced myself on 19T's but now I am in a damn dilemma again lol.

    I've got 19T-HL's, if I could afford 750's I would own them. Unfortunately I'm a broke college student Hey Matt, how about a student discount? lol
    I should have elaborated a bit more. I meant you only need one tune, unless you are switching between fuels, and yeah, you are right, it is very easy. There is even a power harness, so you can unplug your box, bring it into your house, plug it into your wall outlet and use your desktop computer if you don't have a laptop. Even easier is that it has a few accessory input wires. You could hook a switch to and the pro has alternate fuel and timing tables for when the switch supplies voltage.

Remember HP is addictive, once you have 500 you will want 600+ prity soon. If you think that some day you are going to want 600whp it's cheeper to buy the right turbos for the job first then replace them lator.

    Me I would not own a 19T car just because thy always leave me wishing "I wish I had more" And I have built and driven plenty. My DR750 car never leaves me wishing that.
    i know what turbos are on my list after reading that

    i had no idea those 750s spooled so fast.

May not be the best option out there, but it works pretty well when setup right. Unless of course you are going to be switching between different fuels.
