Message according to my sources as well... for the reasons CRuNK mentioned. That's why its not a popular turbo configuration. No point sacrificing mid-range power and lag for 10-20hp at the top. If you want ball-bearing turbos with about 100hp more power output than the 2530s, email me about IHI ball bearing turbos. There is a relatively new kit available for the Z32 using a IHI ball-bearing turbo with 14G compressor wheel and 20G exhaust wheel. That particular turbo is extremely popular in Asia and Japan, and is used as a single turbo on WRXs and Silvias. Lots of Z32s in Japan run this kit as well. The Z32 IHI turbo kit is only slightly more than the HKS GT2530 kit...
