kinda get the feeling you misunderstood me. 550s are plenty of fuel. no need to go bigger. also why go smaller turbo? the 35r is t3 and spools hella fast.

I'm making 540whp with my 550's. I'm using an AEM though, so I can get more out of the the injectors, but you can make pretty good power with 550's if need be. This is all temporary because fuel system and cams are in my very near future.

Thats a good question my friend. I dont know why I sold it. I sold it to my cousin, so I hooked him up. Ironically I might be buying it back, either that or I will buy a Sc400 and go FI with it but I miss my Sc300...

I'm in Alpharetta. I can't complain about the numbers so far, but I want more, lol. My W58 even survived this amount of power, which was very surprising. I just upgraded to V161 though, so that's not a concern anymore. So far, so good though.

How much power are you making? It held mine but I was REALLY nice to it. I highly doubt it would've handled a launch with the power I'm making, but roll ons were just fine. If you're using the SC's pumpkin/gearing, than it's gonna rev a bit high at highway speeds. It actually annoyed me how high it revved at cruising speeds, so I'm looking forward to saving some gas now with a 6th gear. So depending on how you drive and how much power you're making will determine if it'll hold. It held with my setup though for the past 5 months.

Well, with little bigger injectors you'll be able to push the car little more. GT35R spools fast but naturally smaller turbos will spool faster and could provide you with 5xx rwhp in a similar matter.
