They reach 400 as long as the engine can take it

Did you buy brand new? I read SC are fading this version out as the sc38's can almost make the same power as the sc40.

Apparently the sc38 has slightly a better spool than the sc40, but the sc40 makes more big end power

With a 2.1 conversion this turbo (from my understanding) will give you decent power but with your planned setup you will have a greater benefit from an even bigger turbo, sc42,46 or MD's.

I'm sure it will be fine but I haven't read many owners going sc40 with a 2.1. The sc38, 40 are apparently more suited for 2lts. Just my understanding no actually experience mate.
Sure others will post.
