thanks for the typo correction, superglue, and the redundant posting of a link.
my turbo was fine when i took it off, despite running 20+psi before it was fashionable. there is also plenty of meat on that compressor map under 180k. you can hit 1.9pr (nearly 28psi) and stay under 170k.

It's the tiny turbo that could. But isn't it dissapointing having all that midrange power and then having it quickly taper off towards redline? My butt dyno has never tested that set up before, just curious.

You WILL NOT get 500whp on a GT35 with minor mods, whoever told you that you will is blowing smoke right up your ***. Your gonna need SERIOUS money or a tuner that only tells you what you want to hear to get 500whp.

Right now this money no object car is running low 11's, but is capable of running mid 10's if it doesn't keep breaking things like driveshafts.

cliff notes:
customer goes from 16g to 20g, gains 16hp on the same dyno. customer is dissatisfied... rich is not.
if he can't even break 300whp on a 2.5l/20g/fmic (never mind make the customer happy), and feeds the customer some bs as to why he can't, then i have absolutely no interest in meeting him.
