Looks good. Are those the SBC RPF1s?

Suspension looks a little...underdamped? Looked awfully bouncy.

Love the turbo kit. Whenever my warranty is up I'll probably make the jump to it. Do you think something like the GT2871 would ultimately be better for autocross or does the GT30 have enough grunt right now?

That is correct they are SBC RPF1's.

The suspension is Stock except for some lowering springs as our Ohlin Setup did not arrive in Time. Both Turbos will work just fine but the GT30 does not have any issues spooling up and the power delivery is there even for low speed events like autocrossing

When our Turbo Kit is done we will try to host a Course/FATT or Learning experience at Summit Point. Will have plenty of heads up when we try to do that, this event was fun and it can only get better with time and a better track (Also Turbo, Suspension, Brakes will be all done)

How is the braking balance? Is it similar to stock or better?

Excellent so far on the street and autox. But will be testing it on a road course this spring.
