I think it depends on what engine your using. I.e smaller engine would be better of with 0.63 etc. I stand to be corrected though.

I'd not expect to see a great deal happening below 5000 RPM

You should have asked your question before buying.

Simon is running 665bhp on his car using race fuel, I have a rotated GT30R on my 2 litre and nothing much below 4k revs.

I have a gt35r on mine with a .63 housing but if I were to choose a turbo setup again I doubt it would be rotated. Its gonna cost a lot of money to support that turbo and going 2.5ltr with it is a really bad move as its gonna kill it.

That block wasn't your 1st choice though as it was just circumstance that made you go that way, my 2.5 lasted for a while before my turbo killed it

The linered route is a bad idea as you just know they will drop sometime.

Pinned 2.5s are the way forward for a strong block less liners, eh Daz

Mines staying on the spec c cams mate. So i'll throw as much boost at it till it stops making power. After that its gonna stay as is. I dont thinki can be arsed with swapping cams.
