At the end of the day it comes down to how you drive it, you could have 241rwk or even 141rwk you still get wheel spin if you drive like a wa*ker, which alot of people do. There are alot of drivers with many different cars who chose to punch it off the line or whereever they go just because they can, and so I dont find ripping it that hard and creating that wheel spin which potentially damages the motor and chews through rubber that appealing whatsoever. I can drive anywhere and go no higher than 3000rpm between gear changes and not even hear turbo spool up or the bov.

I understand what your saying, these cars are pretty much N/A untill you give it not much more than 2000rpm, you could go all day without hitting anywhere near max boost....But when you do punch it I imagine all those extra killowats wont have that much affect on acctual acceleration...

Anyway maybe im just jealous.. Grippy tyres factor in you should..

Yeah for sure tyres have been one thing I have been researching the longest above anything. Alot of the guys I speak to at tyre places have the opinion that tyres in excess of $400 each are beneficial for high speed driving whether it be track days or drag as they hold their shape and do not flex as much. At the moment im using michellin which set me back about $260 each, they've been one of the best tyres ive had but put the foot down and I still get w/s in 2nd.

Anyway thanks again for the comments guys I'll start a new thread and post pics results dyno blah as they occur.

Cheers

If you wanted to go bigger than a T04Z but smaller than a GT4202 or T51R maybe this is the turbo for you Turbocharger
