I think there is some hidden advantage people like me and Lexusb3 above are not getting the message about this kit. With only 5.3psi of boost it must spool quickly. The other thing at only 5.3 psi you probably don't have to pull nearly as much timing as the superchargers so that's going to help throttle response. I bet this kit could nearly match a supercharger in throttle response.

Now if one has no aspirations for more than 220 ft-lbs which is the best option 50/57/ or 60 trim ?

Also hate to ask this but used to be there were always other model cars where guys are upgrading their stock turbos and selling fresh used OEM turbos for cheap.

Are there any OE turbo's like this you can think of for this kit and would you sell the kit sans turbo (yes I'm a cheap bastard) ?

full boost at 5.3 came in at i believe 3800-3900pm i have to look back at the dyno so it does imo spool nice and quick..if you want quick spool smaller turbo obv makes more sence. 14psi for me full boost is about 4100-4200rpm

^^dont be cheap lol get a good turbo!! I went cheap on my first build in high school years ago and it wasn't a good ending

This kit looks like what I'm wanting. What about cooling? I had assumed, and am planning on also getting a new radiator, oil cooler, catch can, and a couple other things when I pull the trigger on a turbo kit.

I like the numbers with stock exhaust too!

I'd eventually hope for 300+ whp, but I think your kit would make me perfectly happy, especially at the price point.
