Message	I think it is mostly an image thing. I see no big advantage. If you are chasing better performance, there are many other things to work on, obstacles that you face before you need to worry about a single turbo. Seems to be a waste of time to me. Of course, I dislike the chassis dyno infatuation as well, so that skews my argument.
