Interesting. I just noticed in my post I made a typo - I said "o trim" but of course I meant the next size bigger than a P trim - which I think might actually be an S trim. You got what I meant obviously anyways.

The T72 seems like a pretty nice wheel for a 2.8-3.5L - I'm definitely interested to hear how that goes.

Is that 0.71 housing twin scroll?

I am a bit torn between the 0.70 and the 0.84 - the nice thing is the housings are really cheap so it;s not the end of the world to test both if need be i guess.


I'm going to make a sheetmetal intake with a 75mm throttle body this winter - my existing setup is using the Q45 83mm one and the linkage is such that the pedal travel is a bit shorter than stock.

I'm hoping that might make modulating the power a bit easier as well. I just want to make it a little bit more driveable.


Thanks for the thoughts!
