It was effectively Nothelle's version of the RS2 turbo but using less desirable cheaper components.
RS2 setup with good "off the shelf" software is hard to best, the billet variants are yet to prove their worth IMHOPanthero Coupé quattro 20vt

That's my old turbo, as has been mentioned it won't make any more BHP than a full K24 7200 but it does spool up much earlier, so much so I was experiencing surge coming onto boost under certain conditions with the RS2+ software I first had installed in my 3B. So a custom map would see benefits at the bottom end and to the mid range.
On WOT it felt very similar to the RS2 turbo I'm now running, not quite as much outright grunt but not a huge difference and gave much the same AFR's and EGT's.
That said it could be fine with the software your using, guess you could put it on a dyno and see what the AFR's and EGT's are like and what sort or torque curve you get and if all seems well leave it alone.
Nice to see someone making good use of it. But as I said in my PM I'd be wary without AFR or EGT data.
The difference in performance over a stock K24 is quite considerable, as you mentioned the acceleration is much like riding a sports bike.1989 B3 2.0 3A 80 quattro... Budget 1.8T Project.
