nothing special, just makes my car sound cooler, it doesnt add to the performance at all or anything, at least not untill i get my turboback exhaust, but heres a short clip of it..and a picture i took as well.
Note: I just uploaded the video it to youtube so it might not display right away

Get a boost controller and raise the PSI on that turbo by 2lbs or so if your on stock internals, makesl a difference =).

^Boost controllers are universal homie -- just get a decent boost gauge and one of those $15 MBCs off e-bay if you're just looking for a cheap/quick upgrade

^yea see thats what i thought too, but i was doing some research and everyone in vw community has the consensus that its a bad thing to use a boost controller that doesnt specifically says it works for my car, it has something to do with the engine and the way vw over engineers everything i think -=/
i do plan on chipping it which will give me about 20-22psi boost anda bout a 50hp gain
If your going to be running that kind of boost your going to need a better fuel system and upgrade the internals, that's if they're stock.

nah, no need for new internals, or fuel upgrades, all i need is a turboback exhaust, upgraded diverter valvue and upgraded pcv valvue, other than that, things run smooth, the 2.0T FSI engine is like a nuclear bunker
