+1 on what he said the PTE kinda sucks but its also kinda ok it you want to save some $$. I do have a "bigger" 5431. Boost threshold is about 3k or so. 4k its full boost in any gear except maybe 1st. 1st is very laggy.

I also agree transient response is pretty terrible. These turbos really decelerate between shifts. Roll on isn't too bad if you start at 3k. Under that there is nothing.

I also regret getting it. Go Garrett for sure. Id go 2867 personally.
