CUSTOMER REVIEW:
I HAVE A FULLY BUILT JETTA TDI ALH FROM KERMATDI! I USED TO HAVE A 17/22 AND MADE 203HP 345FT TQ WITH IT, BUT IT SURGED A LOT. THEN I BOUGHT THE 17PLUS (17/26) AND I MADE 238HP AND 398FT TQ AND IT'S TONS SMOOTHER AND WAY MORE RESPONSIVE. I LOVE THIS TURBO! MY EGTS DROPPED BY 250 DEGREES WITH THIS TURBO -CODY ANDZEJEWSKI ON 21ST AUG 2016
