Mainly for Resource... HKS t51 compares...

Well since you have the HKS t51r kai. And somehow you are affliated with BI state customs. And you said they sell a t72bb kit. How do these turbos compare. If they don't what turbonetics turbo would be comparative to the t51. Or is the t51 by far one of the best units out there. And if the dual ball bearing option was added would there be no comparison.

Secondly. What type of porting would you suggest for best boost response. Will an extended streetport do. Or is a secondary bridge needed.

Thanx

Spool up is not noticable to mine meaning that lag is the same. BB is not worth the extra 500.

I would reccomend just a large street port.

Or you could buy a 1995 US-Spec LIM... correct? It is my belief that this manifold does not have the casting for the EGR since there was no EGR in 95.
