I'd say stay clear from the super 75. From the dyno charts i've seen without VE mods its pretty damn laggy.

I hear their super 61/65's are great turbos for street cars. With your supporting mods you could make plenty of hp.

What kind of numbers are you after?

341 is really strong. Is that a 75 you run lart?

either way those are good pump gas numbers.

If the response of the k26/6 bothers you, I'd steer clear of any Lindsey turbo. GT28 is probably your best bet, a bit more work but all worth it.

If the lag of the K26/6 already bothers you, get an n/a car. Turbo cars have lag that's what gears are for

how much if any do you think the 10% xylene helped? Did you adjust the timing at all?

Are you happy with your headers? What kind of power if any do you think you picked up?

I would love the numbers Lart got with just my basic bolt-ons! That was with a Super 61? I do notice full boost arrives @ 4200 which i'm not too keen on but realize for big numbers, I will have some boost delay.

I am not familiar with the GT28... time to search. Anyone has experience with them? When does boost come in? Dyno's?

After some research... people are leaning towards the GT28R and GT30R. Tim @ SFR sells these which is great also. What needs to be done to make this turbo fit?

Ballistic - I'm running basically the 340hp kit with the Super 61 #8 hot side and some minor add-ons and find the set-up to be VERY responsive, very quick. Boost comes on at 3700rpm and pulls hard as far as I've been willing to take it right now (5500rpm). It feels like it would pull all the way to redline. I've been holding back on pushing it too hard as I'm still breaking in the engine. I have a little over 500 miles on it, changing the oil & filter today. One more tank of gas and we'll see how she fly's.

Thanks for the info! Do you plan a dyno run soon? I've pretty much narrowed it down to the Super 61 / GT28R or GT30R Hopefully more people can chime with similar set-ups.

Where is RSM? Please tell me the SM stands for Santa Monica

I have the 340 kit plus some extras. I use a LR Sport plus turbo.
I have a good condition SFR Stage 2 ($1,049 new) for sale if you are interested. I had a local shop check it out and they said it was fine. It had zero problems and about 10-20k miles when it came off. $600 plus actual shipping - PM me if interested. Oh yeah, it spools fast too.

Why'd you change?
