I don't want the lowest spool. But I don't wanna wait until 4500rpm either. I am figuring that with a half bp I should be able to spool one of the bigger turbo's fairly quick though. I'm mainly asking what rpm range do you think I should expect the turbo to spool. I do ask alot of my 7's, but they always deliver. It just takes patience when building the car. With as nice as your car is, you know what I'm talking about.

Should be around 5000 on either turbo with the 1.15 P-trim or the 1.00 Q-trim exhaust side. I personally ran the 1.15 P-trim 67-1 (between a T66 and T70)on a secondary bridge and had no problems with spool up. I think if you are looking for power at lower boost I would go with the TO4R. The T72 won't make anymore power than the TO4R until higher boost levels. You are correct in your worry about the 35/40. Did you know that the TO4R and 35/40 have the same compressor side? The 35/40 is ball bearing and the exhaust side is more restrictive, read not what you want on a bridge.

So the T04R with say a .84 A/R and a Q trim would be what I want or would I want to stay with a P trim even though I'm going to be half bp? I have always been told to go with a Q trim on heavy ported motors.

A half bp was not my first choice, but it's going to be what I need to produce the power that I want. A large streetport would probably still not be enough to spool one of the bigger turbos the way it would need to be. As far as building the motor, I can rebuild my own without a problem. I just can't do the porting yet. As far as simply rebuilding an engine, I have no problems doing that. So IGY you're saying something like a T66 or T04R with a 1.00 A/R Q trim would be about right and would have no problems getting me to the 475 to 500 whp range?? I would love to hit higher numbers once I tune to 18-20 psi, but the 15-17 psi range is where I want those original numbers to come from.

Innovative Turbo and Turbonetics can make you a BB T66 (or any turbo you want)
Edit: I also just noticed something from a long time ago. JSpec thought that this was going into my FC. It's not! It's going into an FD chassis. The FC is going to be my daily driver. I am building this FD to prove a point!! Plus I miss my old FD so I'm building this one to replace it.
