And I totally agree with you. But you would be surprised at how much of a difference it would make. The Full-Race GReddy upgrade turbo is making close to 350whp on an RSX with the restrictive GReddy mani at only 14psi. And it was still making serious power until the actual manifold prevented it from making any more power after that no matter what they increased the psi to. So if there was a nice tubular, equal length mani that thing would have easily made 400whp at 18-20psi. Plus he was at full boost at like 3300rpm or something retarded like that. It started building at like 2K. I like the smaller turbos. I like the characteristics of them. Great throttle response, great midrange, and decent top end when properly plumbed and matched to the motor. I'm not too worried about dyno numbers or drag racing. I'm road race guy and I like that midrange power for being able to move around in traffic quickly if needed. Lol. And this is why I want a twin scroll setup. It basically makes a larger turbo act like a smaller turbo. Which is EXACTLY what I'm looking for.

I got ya now...Everyone is always going to have different power goals. This will be an ongoing argument lol. I actually would like to see what the t28 can do, youve spiked my interest lol. Is that 14 psi on a stock motor? Seems kinda scary. But yeah, the thought of instant power at 3 grand pulling all the way to redline does sound pretty awesome lol.
And i apologize for trying to explain the A/R stuff to you....apparently some people get offended when the info has apparently been covered. I dont really like to refer people to other pages though because its not exactly how i would explain it.
