Those are really incredible Turbos though. People are making in excess of 620rwhp with them on 3.2 m3 motors. I believe that is with the .82 exhaust housing though.
What kind of power would a gt30r make on a 2.5??

Hey you want to part with the
.61 hot housing ? If it's not too
costly, I might be interested.

I saw in my post that I havn´t finished one sentence. With the HKS .60 instead of T04S .70 the C-map will be little higher and then I will past it´s highest efficiency circle better.

I already know what goes in for a 4" inlet, however, this is a GT which requires more work just like Edman and yourself went through.....

By looking at Edman's and your work, it's pretty obvious

It's a 16v 8000+ rpm engine so the powerband won't really be that bad if you're mainly interested in going in a straight line.
But the only reason this turbo was chosen was because the GT40R is backordered by Garret

With trying to install a turbo with a 4" inlet? yes i do.
A Garrett GT, no.
