I was noticing some turbo lag with the above setup before installing the VR11 and after following this thread and a few older ones I thought it was worth a shot to see if it would help with responsiveness.
There is definitely a change in the throttle responsiveness when applying throttle at various RPM's and even between shifts. I was setting myself up for disappointment and was pleasantly surprised at how the car delivers power after installing. I am assuming the VR11 is responsible for more of these changes than the inlet pipe, but as I said they were installed at the same time. FYI my stock DV didn't seem damaged in any way, but I am pretty sure it wasn't holding boost properly with the Stage 2 setup I am running.

Great to hear. I’m doing the VR11 and Pure pipe in a couple weeks. Looking forward to better throttle response!
