AET are developing their range of GT30 bolt on hybrids. Testing that I have completed so far has been really good. I am just about to test another version, but have already acheived 530/550 on pump fuel on a 2.5 (Cossie Engine).
More information will be available on ScoobyNet once this turbo has been tested and we have ran the car down the 1/4m. We are hoping this turbo will be the one to get the times sought after.

Mark,
I'm looking at more power than that in reality. My time target with the new turbo on race fuel (so more power, but hoping for new to 500bhp at the hubs), based on testing already done on a similar spec turbo and car, I aim to get in the 10's for the 1/4m. Time will tell, but we know it is achievable with this kind of spec on a GT30 core turbo in standard position on a Newage. I really want to get this Cosworth engine working harder....... it's only being tickled at the moment.
Time will tell, and we will see what happens.

It's a full road trim Spec C, with stereo, speakers and sub (it was stripped out previously). 
How many Newage fully road trimmed cars do you know (with the 6sp box) in the 10's on a standard position turbo..... it can not be taken for granted. As I said, we will have to wait and see.
Steve,
That may have to be an option!

mus 1st class sti type r,
Why is that then?? The rev limit on my Cosworth engine is set to 8200rpm and is used. As per what Dynamix is saying..... not all 2.5 valvetrains are the same.

hi guys im going for a 2.5 build and i need your honest opinions i need your fact and figures graphs would be very much apreciated. im looking for the best turbo for a 2.5 something that will give me full boost by max 3500rpm or earlier and hold boost till about 7500rpm is that possible on a 2.5??? im looking to achieve around 470bhp and as much torque as possible. owners reviews would be appreciated, im aware of the md321t md321t plus the fp green and the fp green hta the gt30 is there anything thats in tat leauge?pub figures dont realy matter much to me mainly response and spool up as the car will be used mainly on the road. the occasional track maybe twice a year and mainly the 1/4 mile strip.
