More
useful Eliminator information:
At ATP, we are constantly
bombarded with dyno charts and engine bay pictures from
all of our good customers. Once every so often, we are
presented with a package of information that has such
a good collection of meaningful data that it prompts us
to want to share it with our other customers. Such is
the case with a recent package of information that came
from one of our Tuner/Dealers in the Ontario region of
Canada. Chris @ Tapp
Auto (www.tappauto.com)
recently had the opportunity to install one of our Eliminator
GTRS kits along with a Mika Tuned Fueling onto a customer's
2001 DBW B5 Audi A4. Needless to say, installation was
seamless and simple for the folks at Tapp Auto as both
the 1.8T and the turbo engine are familiar territory
for this power hungry group of mechanical talents.
We're happy to report that the
simplicity of the eliminator series turbo kit did impress
the folks at Tapp Auto from both an installation and
performance standpoint. Such is the reason that they
have sent us this dyno info for us to share.
Dyno charts provided by Tapp
Auto for 2001 Audi A4, DBW car.
Congrats to Tapp Auto for
doing a fine job of implementing the eliminator GTRS
on their customer's 2001 Audi A4 and a big thank you
for the data provided!
Those customers in the Ontario,
Canada should contact Tapp Auto (www.tappauto.com)
for professional turbo installation work. |
Customer
Data:
Shown below, our customer Okan in Italy shows us a dyno
graph of his car making 265WHP (305 crank HP) on a very
healthy power curve using our eliminator GTRS kit and
Mika Tuned fueling kit for his MY 2000 Passat DBW (B5).
This example further affirms the robustness and consistency
of the Mika Tuned software when being used in various
parts the world under various operating conditions! |

Addendum
to improve instructions, further elaborating on coolant
line installation for eliminator GTRS kit.
Addendum
to include replacement air injection pump hose for eliminator
GTRS kit, that was left out of the original bill of materials
(applicable to MY2000 and newer cars equipped with air
injection pumps. All GTRS shipped prior to 08/04 effected
will be notified and shipped additional hose for installation.
Tech Bulletin:
Minor fitment problem found with ATP-VVW-153
(3" Upgraded Inlet Pipe) on MY2000 and MY2001 B5 cars.
Effects only 2000 to 2001 cars running Eliminator hardware.
P/N: ATP-VVW-153B
will be available to replace all effected kits and made
available for new orders.

Update
05/20/05:
The new K03/K04 "Eliminator"
series of turbos offers the VW/Audi driver new choices
for replacement turbos that will do a lot more than just
"replace" the failure prone stock turbos from
KKK.
GT2X – Stock
appearance, not stock power.
The newly developed “GT2X” bolt-on turbo unit
makes for an exceptional replacement for both the K03
and K04 turbo customer who likes their turbo in the stock
location utilizing the stock exhaust manifold. This turbo
is also for the customer that does not want to miss out
on the low end “grunt” or torque of the stock
turbo. However with the GT2X, expect to be pleasantly
surprised by the flatness of the torque band and linear
power delivery all the way to redline. Unlike the K03/K04
series, the GT2X has been designed to allow for a full
power band on the 1.8T engine without choking up after
5000 rpm due to excessive backpressure at the turbine
(a common problem even for customers that have upgraded
from a K03 to K04).
What makes up the GT2X is a combination of a highly efficient
small frame Garrett turbo cartridge (consisting of a highly
optimized wheel combination that is fully assembled and
high speed balanced from the Garrett factory) and an ATP
cast exhaust housing that has been designed to further
optimize the turbo for the 20V 1.8T allowing it to reach
its highest efficiency range during normal operation.
The result is nothing short of spectacular – an
awesome breathing turbo and engine combination that likes
to rev! In terms of performance, the GT2X (even though
a non-ball bearing turbo) has the ability to start building
boost right off idle speeds with more than 200 ft/lb of
torque available from 2500 rpm all the way to redline,
giving it the feeling of a powerful V8. This turbo, with
its modern GT wheel aerodynamics, has the unique ability
to make boost “now” and not make any qualms
about holding the boost to redline.
Have no fear about this turbo going KKKaboom. The GT2X
turbo shaft is at least 25% larger than any K03/K04 turbo
and since this turbo can provide peak HP without going
outside of its peak efficiency range, it will not be forced
to run at the reliability limits. This turbo happily makes
a reliable 275 crank HP on pump gas and close to 300 crank
HP on high octane.

GTRS
– Big power, small package, still stock appearing.
For those 1.8T customers
that have “GT28RS” envy but simply do not
want to turn their engine bay upside down to run the “disco
potato”, the solution is here. The GTRS is a bolt-on
solution using the ultra-efficient and much larger than
stock, GT28RS ball bearing turbo popular for making 350+
HP. Tasked with the mission to make the GT28RS bolt in
the stock location utilizing all stock components (ie.
manifold, downpipe, inlet pipe, etc.) for a stealth appearance,
ATP set out to study and test the characteristics of those
components that will remain in use with the GTRS turbo
once installed. Our findings, surprisingly, leave a lot
to the favor of the stock exhaust manifold. Contrary to
popular speculation, the stock manifold does perform quite
well and when coupled with the right turbo combination,
the power can exceed expectations. A lot of the deficiencies
in the stock turbo system can be attributed to the low
flowing design of the stock turbo and turbine housing
itself! The OEM's integration of the original turbo into
the 1.8T engine allowed too little flow potential in the
stock turbine housing simply to promote exhaust velocity
for low end flow. The result is too much backpressure
and there lies the cause of the “choking”
in the system, causing the lack of power in the high rev
range. Confident that we have removed the “bottleneck",
which at this point has been identified as the stock turbo
itself, we set out to make power with the GT28RS as planned.
"More
power and even sooner than expected!"
During our mechanical design stages, we focused on shaping
the turbine inlet port of the GTRS’ newly cast exhaust
housing to fit the stock exhaust manifold precisely. This
allowed for a 1 to 1 alignment and the result was a perfectly
contoured entry without any turbulence. What this means
is the exhaust gas entry from manifold to turbo will now
be close to perfect with negligible resistance. In addition,
we found that the slight taper designed into the runners
of the stock manifold promotes exhaust gas velocity even
further. Further testing resulted in a much quicker GT28RS
turbo on a 1.8T engine, at least by 300 rpm faster than
any other off the shelf GT28RS turbo driven by an aftermarket
manifold on the original T25 flanged turbine housing.
And the rest is butter! The GTRS even in the bolt-on combination
has no problem extracting close to 350 Crank HP @ 22 psi
of boost on the otherwise stock engine. |

Additional
Notes:
Installation of
the Eliminator Series:
Installation of either
of the K03/K04 Eliminators kits requires no more time
than replacing the stock K03 or going to K04. A complete
installation manual has been posted to help guide you
through that process.
Smog and Emissions
Testing:
With more stringent emissions testing regulations popping
up everywhere especially in larger metropolitan cities
and in a lot of European countries, we are committed to
creating turbo solutions that conform to these newer standards
allowing you to have a worry-free high HP vehicle.
Stay tuned as we put the eliminators through various emissions
testing standards. |
