I agree with Mark. The "standard" HTA upgrade to like the 3076 only increases the efficiency of the turbo up in the higher areas of boost. There are HTA style turbos that have new blade technology (extra blades OMG!!!) that will help reduce spool and make more power. But the standard HTA that you get on a basic set of like 3076's isn't going to help it spool any quicker at all.
