D I thought about going to Girodisc or another floating , slotted option but after calling Sunset and finding out replacement rotors were about 160$ a piece... I figure I will have to use up a bucket load of OEM rotors to justify the cost of some of these aftermarket solutions...

Absolutely fantastic numbers!
Since most dyno plots are run in 4th gear, I'm always curious at how the throttle response is in real world conditions on these larger turbos. Especially in the lower gears. Let's face it, it's not very often that you start in 4th gear at 2,000 RPM an run to redline.
It would be great for one of tuners to show several dynos with several turbos. Realistically, it's almost impossible to compare apple to apples, but at least same dyno/tuner might be instrumental in showing how the different turbos stack up.
Either way, this car looks like a monster. Great job Tony and company! Keep up the good work!

We've tried to post fair compares from time to time... its just very hard because ever car is very different, conditions can be different, etc.
The only car we've had multiple set of turbos on, we went from 18g to a28's... The car picked up nearly 1500 rpm spool and I got flamed when I posted results
.If there is something specifically you would liek to see, email me privately and Ill over lay plots for you.
1.55-1.6 if I remember correctly.
