Don't believe it....Great numbers..Is this the kit from SR...??

The dyno is already posted in Timeslip/Dyno section. Sorry to burst you bubble. Dave at KDR loves it. Says its the fastest spooling (big power) turbo he has seen. I don't mean the T88 cause it has a lot of lag. Just comparing it to the T04S, T78 or T04E. But thats also why they make different turbos. One for all of us..

Sorry, I misread your post......
Yes, its the stage 2 from SR Motorsports. I will say Ray is a good guy, but holy **** he charges a lot of money. You'd think after spending over $5k with him I'd start to get a discount.

I know. The T-76 is VERY big. He said 66,70, and 78, do the math. So I took the average and it was close to 72.

Same here with the over $5K. Sometimes you can hit him up for free shipping.

guys have it in the states yet. Its here in Japan though.
1000-1200hp

No problem vosko. It would have been nice to have been able to run through 2nd, 3rd, and 4th. Yesterday was the first time I ever tried donuts. When I first tried it I let off because I thought the damn car was going to roll over. If I come by on Wednesday maybe we can go for another ride.

If I can make it you'll have to tell me how it all works because I've never been to the track before.

T51 is a lag monster, i would go with a T78 with the ugraded wheel. Spools almost as fast as a T04, but you have lots more HP potential.
