When did you get it from Xman? I ask because they told me within the last week that they’ve stopped producing them. I believe they said that welding the manifold to the turbo was more trouble than it was worth to them. Looks like we’re down to a small handful of suppliers now. Darksides quality...

May I ask where you sourced the turbo and if you’re happy with it? I am looking at a number of vendors and trying to make an informed choice.

Turbo arrived as scheduled and all seems good. The communication blackout was due to “short staffing”

On the subject of customer service can you explain why you have been uncontactable since charging $1100 to my credit card for a Gtd1752 turbo on Aug19 (0rder#3269)?

Yeah it’s always been the same guy I spoke to (Rafael I believe). Hopefully he’s just on vacation. Will let you know how it works out..

I placed an order for a GTD1752 turbo with PerformanceTdi on August 21st. I got a receipt for payment on the day of the transaction but since then they’ve been unresponsive to email, phone or chat. Previously their customer service was great. Getting a bit concerned and just wondering if any...

Judson Is that on a cjaa? I’m looking at the same turbo for my 2013 Jetta which is currently stage 2. I love the idea of a step up in power with no sacrifice in spool. The extent of the modifications required is only deterrent for me. How was the total time/expense to adapt it for the Tdi. I’m...

I should have said but that was one of the first things I tried to no avail. I feel pretty sure it’s a hardware issue and does seem to be temperature related. The only similar complaints I’ve seen from other owners involved sticking actuators or turbo vanes and one case of a blocked catalytic...

I’m new to the forum and have a 2013 Jetta Tdi with Stage 2 Malone tune and 75k miles. Car runs great some of the time. Very responsive and pulls hard specially in low to mid range where I like it most. The rest of the time (and especially once fully warmed up) it’s very sluggish. Feels like a...

Hi, I’m new to the forum and have a 2013 Jetta Tdi with Stage 2 Malone tune and 75k miles. Car runs great some of the time and is everything I wanted it to be. Mostly before it is fully warmed up. Rest of the time it’s very sluggish. Feels like a severe lack of boost. No trouble codes. VCDS...

ewww we da L Thanks great information! I’ve been looking for an upgrade over the stock turbo that doesn’t sacrifice anything in spool up and low down torque. Seems all the hybrid options lose something at the bottom end but from your description the GTD1756vrk should not. Sounds like some...

Does the Gtd1756vrk require a lot of expensive supporting hardware compared to the hybrid options?

I’m in a similar position to the OP but looking for an upgrade compared to the CR140 which doesn’t sacrifice anything in terms of spool up. I’m afraid I would really miss that instant torque. Does such a thing even exist? Maybe the xman hybrid?

Sorry for going off topic but I’m looking at the Xman hybrid as an upgrade for my 2013 Jetta Tdi with Stage 2 tune. I’m hesitant because I don’t want to lose any torque at the bottom end. Are you able to say how spool up with the Xman compares to stock? Thanks Eiger
