Paradox1:
Thanks,
I'm at that stage where I'm debating what turbo to upgrade to. umming and arring etc.
just don't want to fit a capable turbo then not get good results as it catback is holding back the flow.
Ive seen a few threads with people running stock catback but cant seem to remember any turbo setups or figures they achieved

seems you're talking about a turbo upgrade on an Ed 30 (ed30 thread at least...), but running a standard exhaust? :confused:
Paradox indeed...

lol good 1
I don't have a ed30 but the turbo is still any upgrade for me. whatever turbo I go for it wont be ran flat out. and no it wont be a standard exhaust, Dp is already fitted with stock catback

If it were me I would just see what the standard cat back is capable of in your application and go from there. If it meets your hp goals, I can't see any point in spending the money needlessly tbh, unless of course you do actually want more noise, different tailpipes etc. I'd rather sink a grand+ into decent suspension or brakes than a few bits of bent pipe and a silencer!
GrayMK5GTI:
As others have recommended, ditch the forge bits. . . They just don't flow well enough for the K04 (fine on a 'normal GTI')
EVOMS or Revo intake, Audi S3 intercooler is an improvement (but stock will see 350bhp), you need APR or LOBA HPFP and a downpipe
