John. did you read this?
Who's running a Lindsey super turbo? What are your impressions and which one are you running? How is spool up and what kind of power are you making?
Note Vitesse lovers:
Please do not jump on this thread and hype up Vitesse turbos. I didn't ask about them because I've already heard it all. If I could afford a Vitesse turbo, I would get one.

Wes, can you give me your inside scoop on what turbo you think I should run. You were helping me with the tunning on my previous setup. I'm not hearing anything about the 65. Is the 61 a better choice for a 2.5l?

spool up would not be an issue if our cars could do this:

BTW Rick, your web site is just AWESOME. Thanks.
Time to rethink turbo options for the rebuild perhaps.

These spoolup numbers that people are reporting on the super 61 are as good or better than what i remember others posting with a t04e 50 #8 which is great but a little perplexing. Are there other factors in play here other than the size of the compressor?

Hally, I think some have better tuning then others, thus quicker spool up.
Also, could be a comparrison discrepancy.
How does one arrive at what rpm the reach full boost??? Put it in 4th and floor it and see when full boost hits? At what speed, rpm etc.....
As I know I get boost sooner in 4th,5th then 2nd, 3rd.

Wes, don't turn this into VR vs. LR. I was clarifying a statement made, which DIRECTLY involved VR. Your misplaced comment is not appreciated at all!!!!
