Treadstone Stage 4 Review/Install

Hello ladies and gents...

As I'm sure the title explained pretty well, I am going to be reviewing the (not yet released) Treadstone Performance Stage 4 Turbo Kit. My review will contain pictures of each of the parts, a step by step process of the install along with any tips and problems that a person may encounter. After installing, I will also be doing some dyno runs to see what kinda of numbers this kit is capable of at certain psi levels. I am hoping to do an E47 tune but if not it will be on 91 octane because Nebraska is too cool for 93

Stage 4 kit includes(turbo upgrade):
Turbo manifold
Turbo
Wastegate
downpipe
dump tube
oil lines, gaskets and hardware
silicone coupler to connect to any intercooler pipe set up, and cold air intake set up
we will make it with with any set you may have


Now I went with every part that they offer minus their catback exhaust. The turbo i chose is the PTE 5557 JB with billet wheel. I of course have their amazing turbo manifold that is almost too pretty to be real. I will post a more detailed parts list with pictures later today.

Keep an eye on this thread and the first post as that is where i will be adding information and pictures to.

Well they have options for you to choose from for certain parts such as the turbo, but i know what exactly is in my kit since it is sitting in my room

I also have their CAI and full TR8 Intercooler kit with piping to go along with it

get some pics up of that stuff

The manifold is probably the number one reason I will be going with a tread stone kit ...

EFR vs Treadstone kit . We will have to see what pans out to be a better deal but its really hard to pass up that manifold !!

Out of all fairness, mine is SRTC not red

I have a local tuner that is doing a custom HP Tune for me

The manifold is AMAZING! I will have pics of everything here in the next couple hours
