I have always wondered why you did not try the standard Greddy TD06 route? I'd love to see how your power stacks up to Fred's (good2zya) and Zee's with the same turbos. Of course I think Zee has TD06-18g's now.

Didnt want to put up with cracking manifolds. Even though the greddy manifolds are excellent for power, they crack like crazy.

Also in my opinion the TDO6 18G turbos are not streetable. No power until about 5k rpm. The Sport 650's are better turbos than the TD05's but they tend to make more power because of the superior Greddy manifold, too bad it cracks! TDO6's should make 800 hp.

My car has more power than stock turbos at low RPM and only 5 less peak hp than Zoe's TDO5 powered car.

I think the only guys that have acatual backed up there claims for lots of power, at least to my knowlege are Fred, Me, Bernie and Zoe. A lot of guys claim to make mad power on tt.net but I never see dynocharts.

I think Fred made 558, Zoe, 579 and Bernie made 540 something. Someone overlayed our dynocharts on tt.net I think and my car had the most torque and low end power by far and just bairly lost to Zoe's for peak power. I had the broadest powerband. So I think my motor is the most streetable.
