Message	For the $1500-2500 pricetag on new turbos, I would NOT want to get something that close to stock. For a hundred or two more, you can get the Gt28r or equiv. Even though I know the 510 and 525 are an upgrade and why people do this upgrade, minimal lag, faster spoolup, etc, I just dont get it. If you def want to upgrade and need turbos, why not get more bang for the buck? Call me crazy I guess. ****472 RWHP/461 TORQUE ON 110 RACE GAS @21 PSI ****438 RWHP ON 93 OCTANE PUMP GAS/STOCK MOTOR**** ****429 FT LBS/TQ******************************* Also own: 2001 Harley Davidson Custom Softail Deuce 1997 Ford Explorer XLT V8 AWD 1993 300ZX 2+2 NA 1991 Yamaha YZ250 1985 Ford Bronco 3" lift, 35" Tires Sold: 1986 Yamaha FJ1100 1987 Nissan 300zx na(Z31) 1979 280ZX 2+2 1972 MGB 1968 Pontiac Firebird 1972 Nissan 240Z, dual webber carbs, etc
