Im expecting my apexi rx6b kit to sell on ebay by monday, so Im looking at different setups. Im looking at going bigger, its going to be an occasional street car and its also going to be at the track alot more this coming year so I want something that can put up big numbers. Lag doesnt bother me too much but Id still like something semi decent as far as spool up. Im looking at something with some major power. I was looking at sub-zero's t72 but he said the spool up is around 5k rpms, I was thinking maybe getting his kit and swapping the turbo out for a ball bearing t72 or t70. I was also looking at the bi-state customs to4r, I have all the other bolt ons and I am changine my power fc out for a haltech and im looking to run some high boost at the track. Im looking to break into the 10's with the car and make a legitimate run at the 10.8 BPR seems to put up on a regular bassis but also keep the car somewhat streetable. Any information you guys could give would be appreciated

A t-78 would be a good choice if you didn't feel like putting together a custum kit. Its good for the street and its big, so it would put down some seroius numbers with high boost on race fuel.

T-66 or greddy T-78 should do nicely.

Yep, just got my T66 w/ new 0.81 A/R back into the car last night and it feels great. The boost is coming on a bit quicker than it did with the 0.96 so I'm liking it mucho. This is better suited for the street and it's still way fast. I'll comment more on it when I get more time with it.

The boost is running up to 18 psi despite that it is set for 16 psi per chassis dyno. The weather has gotten cooler and the wastegate works. Not bragging but this car is really fast on the street.
