• which turbo? by SMOKEYDUB on 05 Sep, 2004 11:12
• i have a 86 jetta td and it has the stock garret turbo on it.I also have a 89 jetta and it has a kkk on it which one is better and do you think I can get into the 16's if i use the kkk? I am running 17.2's now and all I did was the screwdriver trick , the broom stick trick,an mazda 626 intercooler and a boost controller (running 23 psi).
  
  thanks for you help Jeff :twisted:

• Smokey, go to the General forum and open the thread called "Major Project Change", then scroll down to a post by "andy2". He discusses this very topic, and I think you'll find his report very interesting...
