The VF series turbos are still by far my favorite for the 2.0l cars. They have a great balance of response and top end power. Going much bigger on the 2.0 will get you significantly more lag and not much more power... especially on 91 Octane.

Part time in two weeks as of today... PT here means I can only pick up open shifts as they become open. No scheduled work... Sucks *****, hopefully I can score some EMT gigs under the table.
