Set-up Question (T04E)

I originally posted this on the Single-turbo forum, but had no responses. Hopefully I will get more feedback here.

Hey everyone,

I have ordered a T04E (turbonetics) and have the following:

HKS race wastegate
race blow-offs (not usre of manufacturer)
850 primary 1600 secondaries
upgraded fuel pump + regulator
3" downpipe, midpipe, and catback
twin-power ignition box
custom cold-air intake
fluidyne rad
custom FMIC (spearco core)
Apexi FC + commander
Blitz SBC-id boost controller

Engine:
street-ported
3mm seals
lower-compression rotors (8.5:1)
balanced

So my question is, what kind of driving characteristics will a set-up such as this provide? I know much is dependent upon tuning, but assume the set-up is tuned well. My goal was to have a quick-spooling, responsive car with no temp problems. I have talked to a few ppl regarding the T04E but no one has given me there own opinion of owning/driving a car with this turbo. If you guys can give your opinions it would be much appreciated. Thx everyone!
