Is this a decent deal from APR - Turbo refresh with the ECU module?
https://www.goapr.com/products/engine_hardware/turbo/oem/parts/T2100012

Or is the turbo you've mentioned a little better/larger?

Thank you!

That's a K04 from APR, it is not able to deliver the power you are looking for so if you then wanted to go Stg3 /3+ you would have to buy another turbo. So either wait and just buy a Stg3 or plan on selling the K04 later when you are ready to go Stg3 but this is more costly obviously especially if you pay to have a shop install as you will then be paying two install amounts.

the one I linked is a custom build option that should support 600HP LMAO You would need a LOT of supporting upgrades (built engine, driveshafts, likely trans as well) to go that route.

Shit, most people on here spend years collecting parts like that, waiting for good used deals, etc. (myself included), and you just bought it all new in a single day? You're a mad man. This sounds like a lot of fun.

Haha I've been saving! I just never pulled the trigger because my health kind of got in the way. I've had several chemo & black box treatments and I just recovered from a bad allergic reaction and I don't want to wait anymore. :)

Eh, not a fan of those pipes. Looks like the machine messed up with rolling them. Or some kind of conjoined twin situation going on LOL
