Damn straight. Good numbers! The advantage of the smaller turbo is that you get faster spool and better response time... turbo lag sucks.

see the thing is...in a drag race..your never at low rpms...at least your not supposed to be...i launch my car at 7k. so having a big turbo isnt that big of a deal to me, and like i said...i have full spool at 5500...not like its all that low..and have about 6-8psi by like 3k.

Yes it does, but your car putting down only 260 when it's capable of doing over 400 sucks worse.

Very true- I don't really care about drag racing though. High rpm power is perfect for drag racing.

Tune, tune, tune...
