You mean you don't like the sound or just the way it feels?

The transient response was amazing and it spooled much quicker with the 2867r and if you're into cool spooling noises, the 2867r sounds like a fucking jet lol. The 3076r gen 2 I haven't been able to really test yet since my motor is being rebuilt. I should have the car back monday evening then off to get it wrapped. What I can tell you is that I hit 430hp on e85 with the gtx2867r, but then I windowed the block lol. I would imagine the the gtx3076r will have a good amount of lag over the 2867r since it's much larger. I opted for the 3076r gen 2 because the turbo was choking on the higher end of the rpm, but mind you I had a lower AR vs the higher one because I wanted a quicker spool. So with my goal now, I am shooting for 550-600+ hp so I need the 3076r and also have done about 98% of the supporting mods to make sure my motor and driveline would hold that power minus the trans. Careful with decisions because with a higher flowing turbo and more power, the possibilities of internal part failures becomes much higher.

Wow I must say, you got me thinking of going Garret. I also am pursuing that jet sound. How did the precision sound?
