I am putting a set of mickeys on it to help with traction when he wants to drive aggressively.

I would suspect most people who 'experience' a 200 ft-lb gain in 1000 rpm would think it's crazy fast.

Until the next guy with a usable power band from 3-7k walks him whilst he's still waiting for the turbo to spool/change down a gear.

That came off pretty negative.. No need to bash.. To each their own with turbo selection.. Of course this turbo is peaky but isn't he running stock tires as well? That can't help much.. From what I hear 255s break traction easily with 350whp let alone near 500

stock size, bit better compound. The stocks were worse then the current tire. Don't worry about ft_sjo comments, he does not like the set up. Everyone is entitled to there own opinion. It makes around 200lb of torque at 4k and right around 300lb of torque at 5k and peak torque happens right around 6.4k.

It's not that I dislike the set up. It is what it is.

I don't usually see eye to eye with him, but his brain power clearly went over your heads in this case.

I don't know what you guys are talking about. I have been known to do some 6th gear races.
