understood...i think if tuned properly, and ive seen a few stock turbos that hold power great on the dyno numbers, but obviously they are maxed out...
i am not knocking treadstone or anything, i was just trying to see why this kit was worth $3,000..thanks for the info guys

A stock turbo will never hold power as efficiently as a 5557, gt30, s252, s256 or even the bnr.
Plus spool time saves huge amounts of stress on the drivetrain since the car is rolling into power.
I'll put my money on MTE or FrossB's car against a stock turbo car any day of the week. It's a night and day difference when you're in the car even if a dyno number doesn't do it for you.

The kit is $3000 because the turbo is $900 a blowoff valve is 260, wastegate is 250, Oil fittings are $150, materials for a downpipe and dump tube are ~$100-200, manifold is $300-500, plus r&d and fitment, plus paying the people that weld it all together and did all the work except install it. It's a pretty fair price if you think about it.
