Gotta think if you go with STD correction, my car makes 420 whp...I really am anxious o see what it makes with water injection, and the C1's....

I'll do this in list form, it's easier

Reasons why I think the .86 isn't a good option

-A t3/t4 has equal spool time, and supports the same power...at a third of the cost.

-Those 'few' rpms make a huge difference in response...there is a huge difference in dyno RPM and then power over time. A .64 car comes onto power instantly...where that .86 has the response of a bigger turbo

-a smaller 30r makes the same power at the same psi, if not more power...and has the same response threshold


There are more reasons, but I can't think of them right now (tired, and have a few Troeginators in me). I guess in the grand scheme, I just believe that a 3071 or 3076 is the better 450 whp to use, as it can support SO much more power, without having to be spun to the moon.

The .86 just drives so clunky...almost unblanced. This is not to say it's a bad turbo...as they are fun...it's just that a .64 housing is more fun.

Cold side housings are the same for both turbochargers. It's just the turbine side that is different.
