Title: T2 turbo
Post by: myvolkswagen on December 09, 2010, 10:16:01 pm

Does anyone know anything about these? how do they compare to a k14? will it run 18 psi of boost reliably? I haven't heard much on them.

  What did the t-2 come on from the factory and do they mount the same as the t-3?

Came on passat aaz's. I was thinking of downgrading my t3 to a t2 or k14 at 18psi because I like having boost right away
