ya, but more "on center" because there is a[p on the left added to it, so the non wg side is the same spot, or more on center as in even without the wg added material it would be more on center?
i think that asks what i want it too lol

it makes sense, but im wondering if thats overall (tangential 4 bolts dont have the wastegate, so they sit just as far to the left but not as far to the right making it on average more to the left when in fact the farthest left point could be farther right than the farthest left point on a 5 bolt, w...

nice i have a question too. for top mount t3 turbo, you guys are saying the 4 bolt outlet has 1 inch more BMC clearance than the 5 bolt? what about the difference for top mount turbo brake master clearance between a t3 4 bolt, and a t2 5 bolt (i dont know why youd run this top mount, but bear with m...

i was just gonna say you have no idea what youre talking about. i know its not ball bearing, but its not spooled till like 3400 and is 900$. i think if you look at your posts you can tell youve just regurgitated other things youve read on here without contributing any concrete or tangible information

the gt-r isnt really over rated. the 3071 spools 1k rpm sooner than the old t3. considering its only 2-300$ more msrp than the gt32/3/5 from ams, i dont think its that bad of a deal. plus, if you might have a hookup...perfect.

you mean 10hp, but that depends on the turbo. its gonna be a lot different 6psi on a t28 vs a gt3071 or 76. yes itll vary from setup to setup, but around a certain number. i have treadstone manifold and shortmount ic piping, stock cams, 9-1 compression. im guessing my setup will spool a little faste...
