Send your jcw turbo to gpop and get more gains and spend less money

Get a helix or tyrolsport intercooler

Akrapovic downpipe is quality

Billet Turbo

I would like to get some numbers from Alta as far as performance
and how is that affected by the gas consumption , I know that by
getting a bigger Turbo the gas millage will be compromised but I
would like to have a general idea.
I already replace several parts by Alta products and I am very happy
with the results .

Not true, only if your lead footed.

If you stay out of boost your MPG shouldn't be drasticly affected if affected at all. Also a solid tune with a slightly larger turbo can yield great power gains as well as still allow the vehicle to be fuel efficient at cruise and light load to partial throttle.
