It's how I roll. True DSMer yo.

Can everyone stop using T3/T4 as a size reference, all you are doing is naming the exhaust inlet flange and T3 is different from T4, let the honda idiots keep talking like that and awd-drifter apparently.

This thread is good for 2 reasons, I wanted to talk to scheides about his "small turbo" love, the turbo's he seems to like are these 50lb/min (3052, 3076, etc) things that a 16G just wont do, maybe the new 68hta. But i have to agree that size is perfect I know I loved my bolt-on holset which is comparable to those.

2nd, is my friend is asking my what I want to do with my car and I can honestly not describe what I want, but I want the response and some top end. It's even harder with an auto and an Auto DSM at that we all know 1Gs can't turn.

I think a 2.3 with a green would be mint for a tire shredding, cone-dodging DD, it would still go in a straight line fast enough to be most of the things you will run into.

That dudes powerband is exactly what I want, straight line HP to redline (8k)

Thanks for posting.
