Would you mind giving it up to us what suspension, trans and other mods you have on this car? Tires/rims, I'm just curious because of your times, they're lookin pretty good man. Good luck on getting into the 10s!

How much do you think your car weights? Must be nice to be able to run 10's with streetable power.

Why do you want to run the same boost? It doesn't make much sense. A bigger turbo at the same boost will flow way more air. Putting on a bigger turbo that is not in the sweet spot compromises your daily drivability. You could have had as much luck on the smaller setup by turning up the boost and you would have faster spool.

im not after daily drivability, this is not my daily driver. this turbo should make the power i want at the higher rpm's, 6k-9k is where i need the power, plus i wanna hit 10's at under 20psi. should be achieveable with this turbo since i went 11.2 with 16psi on 57 trim.

Sometimes people don't want faster spool.
