k29/8+2.8L 951=?
Would this be a laggy experience? How do you guys think the car will do power wise?

If you're already bothering with a 2.8 why settle for old turbos

Probably because there is one for sale on here for a reasonable price.
But otherwise if your buying new then why not get a Vitesse Stage 3 or a lindsey turbo.

I have K26/28 (with K29 compressor wheel) on my 2.0 litre 931 and it spools ok though #6 turbine housing is too small for it and creates more backpressure than I like.
I guess it would make a decent street turbo with #8 turbine on 951.
