Yes, I’ll upgrade the tune to stage 3. I’ll have to datalog to get the best results with the cp3. What I like about malone tunes is that he lets you upgrade for a very fair price. Also, if you ask ahead of time, he’ll send 2 versions of the same tune. Factory emissions compliant for the street...

This turbo combined with my "high flow" dpf, egr cooler "mod" and stage 3 "eco" tune would easily pass inspection here. I'm really surprised more people haven't talked about this turbo, especially with the super high price of the malone stage 4 and very little feedback of the kerma ks3.

2011 sportwagen 92,000 miles with cp3 conversion, stage 2 Malone tune with factory emissions and dsg tune. I was turning right from a stop sign in heavy traffic yesterday. Got on it a little bit, traction control kicked in, and then the motor sounded like a faint fire truck siren. Almost like a...

Not to hijack, but how much are you wanting for the turbo? Mine bit the dust yesterday.

I’m assuming that price doesn’t include tuning, which would be in the $700 range.
