• The 270CDI turbo is not a VK, it has the vacuum actuator so it's a GT2256V. If you're going big VNT why don't you go for the newer and quicker spooling /lower EMP generation, the GTB? GTB1756VK, GTB2056VK, GTB2260VK etc.
  
  How are you planning to control the VNT mechanism?

• Price and availability is why I am going that route

• I am just wondering what it will do on a daily. I am sure it will make power up top, but what about down low? The problem I have now is not enough cold air to run more fuel. This should do it I am hoping, but at what cost to low rpm power?

• I don't think there is much info on using the larger vnts on IDI engines. I have a gt2559v I am putting on AAZ with mechanical vnt control and how no idea how it will be for lower end response. Similar reasons as you. I got the gt2559v for an incredible price so why not slap it on there, right?
