haha! not according to this post>> https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/sh...326280&page=13 you can start it from page 1 or you can read this page. It spooled earlier about 200rpm
Well you can look at my dyno's as proof as to what Driven Innovations manifold did for my car,the 3' piping and 3' outlet and 3'T/B was all Tom's recomendations and he had stated to me IF IT DOSEN'T WORK AND NOT BEAT STOCK SPOOL AND NOT MAKE HUGE GAINS I WILL PUT YOUR CAR BACK THE EXACT WAY IT WAS NO QUESTIONS ASKED!!
So as far as what would I reccomend for a great mod for anyone.....invest in this setup that Tom has built for me and go out and enjoy the gains!!! 9sec9 is going to be amazed when he see's the results himself.
If you could have seen where the numbers were going on race gas before dave pulled 3 degrees of timing I was utterly shocked!!!

EDIT---
Speaking of, I do have a suggestion i'd like to make. I'd like to see your intercoolers with a selectable inlet/outlet size to what we suggest. It would really be best to take the hot air off the turbo in 3" to a 3" inlet for the intercooler, but from the intercooler to TB a 2.5" route would actually increase velocity of the incoming air. Doesn't seem like too hard of an option to implement...

I can tell from the picture its a stock TB... possibly ported though. Look at the end of the UICP and you can see the silicone necks down.

Ah hah! Excellent news.... I usually just stick to what I see on the website. I try and not contact as I know you guys are super busy. Looks like I'll need that 3" LICP with my PT67 from you guys shortly.

I can see when you start getting to FP3065 size or large it being a benefit to get more air IN. Theres gotta be a fine line where something is restrictive.

Personally, I do not see how it could be. Its just like choosing an improperly sized intercooler on a small turbo. The smaller turbo would spool slower as its needing to fill more area in the intercooler before making its way out (or how I see it anyway...)

Ets just did a nice 3 inch set up for my car, it will be going from a buschur race to a VSR
here are some pics of it on my table
eventually what it will look like after I figure out where I want to place everything
and the engine bay that it is going in
