Re: Back at it again...

I am not set on making big power, but I am "thinking" that I would be able to keep something around the size of a 60 trim spooled on the track assuming I am in the right gear. I would rather try it out before paying $700 for the HTA 16g or around the same price for a used 30r. I am pretty sure E85 is ok for club racing as some of the road racers on Tuners use it but I am not 100% sure yet.

Goodhart- The car will probably be kept in Isanti for the most part.

Motorcycle cop pulls up next to me on UNI and says "Want to race?"
Me- "I don't think you would stand a chance."
Cop says "probably not" and drives off.

What I'm saying is that you'd be able to modulate the power of a smaller turbo easier than that of a larger turbo. You don't want to hammer the throttle coming out of the corner, have the turbo spool and the car decide to swap ends. Fun, maybe. Friendly, no.

I know what you mean. If it doesn't fit what I want, I have no problem yanking it off and trying something else. I just figured I would try it first as it is just sitting here and I was happy with the power level it has last time I used it.
