so in comparison to the gt35r how does the 500 stack up? Which gets full boost sooner and at what rpm? Which has more power output at 15psi? I've read alot about both turbos but can't seem to get a straight answer

All the info is there, spool up is near identical, the 500R will allow more boost and slight edge in lower boost efficiency. At 15lbs depending on who has what setup ie exhaust, IC, etc. it could almost go either way. As the boost level rises though, the 500R will walk away from the 35R.

Sean - Is it also more efficient with larger porting as apposed to more boost? I currently have a street port but my next engine (hopefully not for years ) I will do an extended port with a 1/2 bridge (from a 100' diving platform j/k). I may increase to 20lbs eventually with water injection but for now it will be tuned for 14-16lbs depending on 85% max fuel.

Sorry I didn't hit this yesterday I thought it was you same post above. Just waiting on the next batch of turbo's to be finished. I'm trying to stay ahead on the orders but getting the wheels to come in from garrett can sometimes not converge well timing wise with orders made. You look to be in the next batch of kits to leave.

Can this kit be used with an M2 Large IC, if custom piping is made.

Your kit is good to go, we had two items that wound up on back order our stainless transitions were on a three week back order. And our wheels, both seem to be fine now. Some time we wind up ordering stuff faster than they can keep it in supply, not totally a bad thing

Yeah, please do. Also, just wanted to verify that it'll fit with a differential brace, ryan said he wasn't positive about that.

It should fit I don't have a car here with one on but I do nknow the dimensions, The bigger issue you have over nick is he had no centre muffler so getting yours up high enough and over enough was a bit harder.
