No it’s not worth it if your stage 2 already. Low end on stock turbo is awesome.

Did you know they have released a newer version of the TTE500?

Less back pressure
Lower EGT
More power
Lighter mass
Different geometry
Less blades


Is it not more blades?
From 6 blades to 9 blades?

The 9 blade turbine is made by a company called zage, also a eBay company called mamba. I have seen these style of shafts several times over the last year. It's not the be all and end all. I would say boarder line a gimmick.  Ben
