Thats the prob with the G compared to the Z.
Oh well, I guess I'll just have to stay in the gas longer against Z's lol.

I thought that the way JWT names the turbo kit refers to their max horsepower capability. Therefore... 530whp for the 530bb, 700whp for the 700bb, and 850whp for the 850bb.

Is that really true?

can you at least tell us if you ran more than 22psi on the race gas power run? I WAS PUSHING HIM TO DO 25-28 PSI

Anyways, conrats on the setup mike... very clean G... very nice custom work

That's correct. JWT rates their turbos close to crank hp capability.

They are priced about the same. We have to pay for the equipment and each individual license for each ECU we flash. I wish it was like the Evo, and open-source flashing. That would be sweet.
