Message	As much as I love the 500s, I want just a bit more out of my turbo and I think the 530 is a good balance. Given that they are a tad bigger, you can also run less boost to get similar power up to a certain level and that's always good for the car. The cost is so much more that the 500s are still a great choice for some people. I'm pretty sure I'll be going with 530s. My 300Zs: www.zheaven.com - Have a question about either of my 300ZXs?
