Commonly asked questions on BQ's V 2.0 turbo list ( NOT OFFICIAL, MISTAKES MAY BE FOUND ON THIS FAQ)
IV 2.0 vs. V 1.5
-Manifold has been upgraded to allow more turbo options.
II AT compatible?
-BP's V 2.0 turbo is compatible with the 6MT models only.
III Will the turbo work on stock clutch/flywheel?
-The stock clutch may not be going to stand up to this level of torque. **Upgrade highly recommended by BP's turbo owners getting something rated for 550ft-lbs or better. ( The stock clutch wouldn't handle 450wtq ).
-What aftermarket parts users got:
A.) Z1 lightweight flywheel and full faced disk. @jwick
B.) southbend Zspeed setup @Mitco39
C.) speciality z @JMac88
D.)

IV Will a single 3'' exhaust will be too much restriction on the turbo?
-This may vary. It comes down to the amount of boost/tune. A 3"exhaust will make more power than the stock block can handle, larger exhaust would be beneficial.

BP
Pros:
- You can install it in your garage on jack stands
- A single turbo makes more torque than a TT
- With a twin scroll divided housing you hardly notice any spool difference
- Everything you need, except a basic tool set, is included with the purchase of the kit
- Pulling the turbo is pretty simple and can be done in less than an hour, probably more like 30 mins
Cons:
- A scavenge pump is required since turbo sits at the same level as the oil pan so gravity draining is not possible
- Turbo is low
- The secondary PCV system is vented causing a slight hiccup in the idle when coming to a complete stop.
- Only available for MT
- Have to drop the turbo cross piping to change the tranny fluid (highly recommend adding a transmission fluid change at time of install. Use synthetic so you don't have to worry about it for awhile)
TT
Pros:
- Turbos are located like the factory would have installed them
- No scavenge pump cuz the turbos gravity feed
- Power curve is likely slightly easier on the engine than the ST because the torque comes on a little more gradually
- Keeps the stock PCV system
- Transmission type doesn't matter, the kit will fit. (assumes you ignore the power restrictions the AT has without serious upgrades)
Cons:
- Basically have to drop the motor to install
- Unlike the BP kit, most people will need a shop to install the TT
- Won't come with everything to install
- Turbo upgrade requires you to drop the motor again

1. Are there any logos on any parts of this turbo set up/ or planning on adding some?
-No logos anywhere on the system
-Focus is on quality of the product it self.
