Message RED: GT2860RS w/ .86 A/R turbine, 9-blade, Stillen IC/OEM Pipe (Seb)
BLUE: GT2860RS w/ .64 A/R turbine, 9-blade, Stillen IC/OEM Pipe (Dee)
GREEN: GT2860RS w/ 10-blade turbine & .63 A/R housing, MASSIVE SMIC/2.5" Pipe (Ash)

SAE Horsepower

SAE Torque

Not as much of a difference, but it is still there.
The differences between the setups:

Seb has larger valves (Dee has OEM)
Seb has 500 cams (Dee had 400's)

Dee's car had a cluster of an exhaust: 3.0" DP, 3.0" TP with gutted cat sections, and a 2.5" cat-back. I'm not sure how much better this flows as compared to Seb's all 2.5" exhaust or if there would be any appreciable difference.

As for the crank in my car, I'm not sure how much of a difference it is making - I would be more inclined to say that the spoolup characteristics have a lot more to do with the breather mods and components in the turbo's hot section. It would be nice to see a dyno comparison of a car swapping out only the flywheel from an OEM to the RPS so we could get a better idea of how changes in rotating mass really affect spoolup. My presumption: it has less effect than changes in turbine housing and turbine selection does. I know it isn't hurting spoolup but neither of us really know the level of contribution until some sort of testing is done.. Any chance you have dyno comparisons of before/after a billet flywheel install?
