Ok I'm looking into upgrading my turbos and wondering the pros and cons of the GH V ATP?
Those with experience and have done the research can I get your input?
I have the xdi35 GH IC and all the supporting mods this is the last piece of the puzzle.

Thanks
Shane

If you aren't planning to build an engine, the GH turbos can produce enough airflow to grenade a stock longblock. The GH has the advantage if being more responsive than the ATP units if you don't need all that extra airflow. ATP flows more potentially at the cost of response.

I originally went with ATP's and even purchased them but due to some miscommunications and what not I didn't end up going that route. I spoke with Matt after the fact and instead of continuing to pursure ATP's I found that his GH turbos will do absolutely everything that I wanted to. In fact so much so that I am willing to bet his turbos can put out 600AWHP as it sits. I hit 536AWHP with his turbos before I grenaded something internally. That's at 62-67% WGDC so plenty of room to grow. Unless you are going absolute full dick then there is no reason to use the ATP's and the GH turbos will outperform the ATP's in every aspect until you are shooting for over 600awhp IMO.

I took like two months of deciding and what not before I made the purchase and would absolutely go with the GH turbos over and over and over again.

GH Turbos ....totally worth it. Very happy with my purchase. Plenty of room to grow your build with them. No one has maxed them out.

All good info for me guys. Does GH offer it in a kit with all the gaskets and everything needed to make the swap?

Did you get everything all buttoned back up Andrew?
I did but I started a new project and it's holding up it getting back on the road. That project is pretty much done just waiting for items I need to complete it. I'll reveal that when it's done.

you have part numbers? I also read there are push on factory lines but not sure what parts they are.
I can look later for some. I basically went on Tasca.Com and searched my year, then found all oil, coolant lines as well as gaskets for each to replace. About $400 more on top of turbos. But I felt it a necessary replacement.
