So true :cool:

Have you drove a AUTOMATIC with a 20G yet?

Mine was seriously atleast +7 seconds from the floor to spool!

Ever try to stall it up at a stop with the automatic? Ever heard of spraying it? Nobody told you to buy an auto. :rolleyes:

Put a looser stall in it or you won't be really happy with any turbo you bolt to it. :cool:

Yeah spray and a T/C have been in my plan for a while now.......

Just a matter of Time and Money right?

This cheaper T28 should get me by till spring then its a new T/C, a Shift Kit and end clutches from IPT.

You should have spent the $$ to fix the 20G

And have another big laggy turbo on this car with a stock auto tranny again?

Sorry, I disagree.....

I'll get a bigger turbo again down the road once all the tranny mods and spray is in place.

Yes, it is true that both "Big and laggy" are very subjective terms.

Too me my former Big 16 was much more streetable and fun to run than this 20G WITH it's 50 Trim Comp Wheel <spools much slower just like a 50 Trim>

I was used to spools at around 2500 not 4000!

Again my goals are not to get in the 10's the track, it's to just to have some fun with quicker than average, street car.
