I was thinking in running it with anti lag anyway as I have Simtek on the car and once it gets remapped I'll get anti lag put on but need to see if this turbo is any good for me

To make even a guess about laggy or not one would need more info.
-Exactly what GT30??
A 3036, a 3071 or a 3076,
-What size rear housing/AR (0.63/0.85/1.1)
-Engine spec

Didn't realise I would have to start cutting and chopping I though it
Would just be a straight fit

You can unbolt the exhaust housing and rotate slightly but a minor trimming of the bell housing would be required on a MD321. It's only a minor trimming and nothing to worry about.

I love my MD321T (Billet). Not sure what it would do on NON ACVS heads so cannot comment. Someone will be along shortly to update.

I assume the trimming is only needed with a 6 speed? As i put o e of these on a scooby with a 5 speed PPG box and it went on with no trimming of the box.
Then the guy decided he wanted to
Rotate that turbo, weld the penny valve shut and fit an external wastegate lol

A gt3076 on a .63 should get you 450 bhp !

SC range or MD rage is based on the GT30 core and they should be OK like on the AVCS or non AVCS cars

Ideal turbo will be as above MDX321T or SC42,which should be good like as I said on the AVCS or non AVCS cars
