what power could you get with a good set up GT2052V 210hp ? i picked up one from a goosed a4 v6 tdi $8 yes been in the right place at the right time 
Sierra94 what power you puting out with your vnt and when does it start to spool up

[Sierra94]

I estimate around 160-170 engine hp. My wife has a -00 Passat with a chiped AFN that puts out 140hp and the mazda feels alot stronger. The Passat weighs a little more and has higher gear ratios but I think my estimate ain't that far of.

It starts to spool at 2200 rpm without vnt controller. I have it in the garage during the winter so I will try to get a controller setup as soon as I get some time over.

wow, madness. yeah i'm aiming for around 200rwhp, should be within the limits of the turbo (and possibly another)
Sierra, i bet this would be even better to drive with a controller on (what do you have in mind by the way?) as you should see spool a lot earlier, i imagine full boost at about 2100

@Henk:

IŽm gonna go with a cable/boostcan controller to start with.

well, thats good.. ive never paid more than $40 for a used intercooler..

least you know what you are looking for now tho.

Yes, IŽll buy a spare Alu one just in case the plastic one cracks. I havenŽt tried the truck since installing the ic. To much snow here right now.

lol, perfect time to go try it out.. not like you will be able to load the engine much..

without engine load, you dont make much boost, least on my car you dont..
