I decided to use the .82a/r gt35r because i was after a really fast hitting turbo with decent power potential.
The dilemma i have is whether i should port the motor or not or maybe just give it a very mild port and clean up the runners.
Do you think it is worthwhile doing anything more than this being i am only using a .82a/r hotside and not looking to get big power, maybe about 400rwhp max.
Would i be correct in saying that a large streetport would even work against a turbo of this dimension?
Also anyone with the same set-up please let me know what power you're making at what boost and where you reach full boost,ect.
Thanks.

check out www.catenet.net/dyno.php - there are a few graphs of 35R's up there - most with the 1.06 A/R housing. The .82 housing sounds a bit small - the 1.06's are already hitting full boost between 3500 and 4000rpm. 400rwhp might be tough on the .82...

80 trim turbo with a .84 a/r on my buddys car just did 416rwhp at 16psi
it was custom made
he can get 8psi in neutral and open the wastegate crazy!

The larger 1.06 spools plenty fast and is already restricting enough. The .82 is just going to choke the top end. I would hit 15 psi before 3500 with the 1.06.
