| a .86 A/R vs a .64 A/R turbine housing. This is Seb's JWT-tuned .86 A/R Sport700 setup vs. Dee's .64 A/R setup with the IC piping/ICs. 
The red line is Dee's HP and the blue line is Seb's. The .86 doesn't catch up until right at 5500RPM. There is 175HP difference at 4500RPM, which would equate to around 225ft/lbs of torque difference between the two. It took 2psi more boost to make the same power with the .64 housing, but I believe this was mostly due to the additional engine work that Seb's car has vs. Dees. At 6500RPM though, you can see where the .86 breathes a tad bit better than the .64, but with all that lag on the upswing of things, I can hardly see the advantage of using the .86 housing.
