The turbos have been ready since we posted this, the tune was done quite a while ago, we have been waiting on the customer, who needed his car back to get us the final DYNO numbers with his current set up. As he works in Coal and Minning, he is onsite for long periods at a time. We expect to see 470s on pump gas and over 500WHP with water meth. Without the final DYNO#s, we haven't had anything to announce or release as we always release our parts with DYNO proof 
That being said, we can recreate this at anytime. We have had multiple customers want to do the same, but no one has taken the jump to do it.

Wanted to know how turbokits.com turbos are compared to Weistec’s new release W205 turbo upgrade for the C450/43?
Definitely a big price difference but no actual numbers either.
Thanks guys!

Hey Turbokits.com, been trying to get ahold of AMR about coordinating everything. Not sure if Matt is still working there. No response from them about doing the work.

Thanks for the feedback, makes sense.
Matt from AMR did also just send me an email; so I'll give him a call to talk about the project.
Snow performance Stage 4 versus Stage 2? Any preferences or better gains with tuning with one versus the other? Seems like if the ideal tune is in play then the flexibility of the Stage 4 program with H20-Meth throughout the power band would be the best.
But then again what do I know.?? LOL
Thanks again!

Appreciate the feedback, spoke with Matthew from AMR today. Great conversation and just waiting now to review pricing and if their shop has an open availability.

That's great news. Looking forward to someone running this setup....10s in the quarter no doubt, it's just a matter of how low the ET can go and how high the trap will be ....

^ come on guys, you two always troll AMR posts. They have put out some very stout tunes, as have your beloved Eurocharged boys. Let's try and have a bit more meaningful posts in this thread, OP, what are the stock turbo flow rates, and what are expected numbers with the increase?

Let’s be realistic here, this thread is almost a YEAR old now. I don’t recommend a turbo upgrade, I’ve heard too many rumors about weak connecting rods, but if you want them, Weistec has them for sale on their website.

This is a TurboKits.com thread and I don’t have an EC tune btw.

searching for a c43 sedan
What were the results of this? What needs to be done? upgraded fuel system (larger injectors, fuel rails?)
Curious how much power these motors can put down reliably, nothing too crazy.

The dude that has them and has been running them for some time now apparently works on the moon. We don't really know when he'll come back to Earth in order to simply throw the car on the Dyno and show us plebians what these can do.
Check the thread man, it's been over a year and nothings been done.

GLC 43 dude following along for a year now. I'm pretty much out of things to do to mine, but definitely need more. Doesn't even excite the wife anymore, but it looks like I'll probably be in a 63 before this ever has a price tag. Apparently not enough of us want it or something.

Yes👍👍👍

Turbocharging system AR value change is very difficult
The flow rate is too large with the blade angle, and the relative power amplifier can't keep up! Will only bring extra burden⋯⋯
A lot of stock restrictions
[font][font]問題在於我們的地圖傳感器BAR不夠高，調諧器無法校準非常高的PSI。[/font][/font]
[font][font]克里斯的低速動力為500s。[/font][font]別以為他已經把它當作追踪了。[/font][/font]
[font][font]但是所有的錢。[/font][font]我希望550-575rwhp [/font][/font]
[font][font]不知道他們計劃什麼，如果有什麼可以解決的[/font][/font]

Yes the original tester has gone ghost. We have a new test car that should be bringing the car up to AMR soon. He has another thread started as well about the build.

We have 3 customers with these turbos in hand. One customer is still building his motor, etc (not mandatory, but he is going to push the absolute limits), the other customer is working on getting us a DYNO chart and the first customer to test it, he disappeared. Anyone local that wants to get these upgraded, let us know, we'd gladly work with them on a cost advantage for us to have the car to do all of the testing!!
