The twin scroll is nice for spool... but I can take a precision "Billet" journal bearing and produce almost the same spool.. but gain more whp.. Just a though for everyone out there thinking that the "GT" is the only series that can produce power.. don't get me wrong.. very nice turbos.. but very nice price tags to go along with those series..
So true Roger but you could argue these things all day with the amount of choices out there. There are so many different options that if you just don't choose one you'll be chasing different options for ever. Lol....For me it will probably boil down to price. My GF is giving me some crap about spending so much money on the car now that I might have to cool down a bit and bite the bullet and buy her a ring. That will keep her off my back for a bit. But a ring will cost just as much as the FR kit I want. lol....Decisions decisions. wife or car?.......lol......
