Thanks Mark. I have an idea what to expect now. I'll post updates on FB upon my return from holidays. Cheers mate

One because im more familiar tweaking a standalone ECU than an ME7.5 and it's got a very good local tech support. Very very few people can tune ME7.5 here too. Also why im swapping a complete harness of an APU is because wiring in a standalone is very time consuming, especially mating it with...

Hey Mark, did you reuse your DBC throttle pedal bracket? I'll be running a Vipec i88 plug in standalone this time so as long as it's a DBW setup I'll be fine [emoji1]

So got hold of an Etka copy and found that the AJL and APU knock sensors and harness are identical. Did you guys end up using a non DBW pedal bracket?

Nice.. Cheers

Anyone actually weighed the alloy and non alloy ? If there's a lot of unsprung mass to be reduced, I don't mind but I gotta change my Caliper adaptor

Bloke said this :- Wouldn't the sensors be different seeing the APU is an 058 and AWT an 06A?

Bit of an update, located someone breaking an AWT passat and have the complete hardware listed here to run mE7.5(or Vipec in my case). Will that work on an 058 motor ? Guy reckons it's the same as an APU harness hardware but a mate who's got Etka checked for me and found the part number to be...

Hi Mark, the whole lot bar the stuff I won't need. **duh on me lol. I'll PM you on FB hahaha. Danny

Thread bump. This appears to a "hard to find item" on eBay. Any place/website I should be looking at? **wont need TB, MAF+housing and ECU btw How much(ballpark) should I be paying for those without the items I mentioned?

Ninja thread bump. Any updates to this build eg dyno numbers?

That's true but you could just run their T3 flange version... It's actually not a big turbo...it's long LOL like 3inch + http://blog.perrinperformance.com/borg-warner-efr-turbo-exposed-and-tuned/

Good info Paul. Someone told me it is but I doubt it had a metal cage. So the GTX's basically a GT series with fancy wheels :p

The reason why I went with an EFR is for the same price you're paying GTX money, and GTX is basically a GT series with a different compressor wheel and metal cage bearing. Also to run a GTX you'll need an external wastegate(for me anyway), diverter valve and needs some plumbing work done which...

G'day Lads, As the topic says, Anyone running them on a S3? Asking this on behalf of a good friend of mine who's got a 2L stroker, etc etc..pretty much the works except he's having a hard time selecting a turbo. It's like the 7670 he's after. Alternatively(last resort) is to run the garrett...
