I guess it just depends on what you are looking for.

If you (jojo or whoever is a fan of sequential) use full-throttle alot below 3000rpm then you probably need something besides a T3/T4 on a KA or SR. However, in my opinion if you want to go fast you should never, ever, be below 3000rpm, unless you have to launch below that to avoid roasting the tires. If you feel the need to use full-throttle below 3000rpm and can't downshift for some odd reason, then you need sequential turbo stuff. If you can then you don't simple as that. This easy to drive nonesense sounds like driving harleys or mustangs.
