What setup did you have player?

I have a worked motor with a 35r and it is NO way as laggy as your setup. Boost by 4200-4800

Oh ok, sounds about right because 3400 - 3600 is higher than 4200 yeah? You are DREAMING if you think your turbo spools faster than anything. A Garret 3076 is much smaller than the 35r and makes full boost close to 3800. 4800rpm.... By the time you hit boost its almost time to get out of gear.

I'd like to add a point here. When you are giving the car a bootfull you are taking it to redline yes? So it is irrelevant if a big turbo comes on boost later. As long as you have enough revs up your sleeve so that the next gear change will make boost it doesn't matter how small your powerband is. A smaller turbo means that you get boost earlier once. After either turbo is spooled and the revs are up they stay pretty well the same.

A smaller, more efficiently designed turbo on a small motor like an RB will be better than a larger turbo. The smaller turbo will be much, MUCH more suitable as a street, track and drift car. That lag between boost can be the difference in many things. No point having a big turbo making 320rwkw with big lag while a smaller turbo can make the same power with much less lag. That is the point I'm getting at. The OP has a stock block so you will be really pushing the motor with a 35r when something smaller can create big power with less boost.

Believe me, even with full boost by 3600rpm, in 2nd gear if I am down in the rev range it feels like forever waiting for boost to come on and its sometimes embarrassing as you can hear the car wanting to come on but nothing happens. How shit would this be having to wait nearly 1000rpm more.

Probably as shit as it would be when you are both rolling and you both have the right gear selected and the bigger turbo just leaves you for dead for all the extra power it provides. Having a big turbo is not a bad thing. You just have to learn to drive around it. I have owned and rode 2 stroke bikes for over 20 years. You have to have the right gear or you got nothing. But then when its on band no 4 stroke can get near it. You don't chose a 35r to get the same power level as a 30r. How many people drive their car on boost all the time? I hardly ever do. It uses too much fuel. I either grandma drive or I flog the guts out of it.

Smaller turbo's need more boost.

That's up to individual personal taste.

    • Seat of the pants assessment of the new intake: The car is way less "doughy" when hitting the loud pedal, especially off idle when stopped or in traffic, I did use a cheapo lazer thermal thingo to measure the temp around where the pod filter got its air, it was between 55 - 60°C, in saying this the car was shut off and not moving, so the OEM intake pipe was not supplying any fresh air to where the pod was when the car was at least moving A weird bonus was induction noise on the throttle in the cabin increased a bit,  I was worried that I was actually going to lose some of that induction noise I love so much, outside though, when I got the daughter to do a WOT drive by pass for me, the induction noise has increased alot when on the throttle, not quite ITB doort, but well up there I'm extremely happy with the results and have been exploring the country roads in the region  As for house mods: 1.New front fence is up and is awesome, it really upgraded how the joint looks from the street, and the added security is nice 2. Electricians have replace some interior lights, and with more lighting in the garage, a few new motion detecting lights out the front above the garage, front room, and at the front door, which I have already found heaps helpful coming and going, also now has fancy pants CCTV all round the house The only hold point for power though is the solar and batteries due to supply issues, although this will happen over the next few weeks 3. I have done a heap of landscaping out the front and I'm almost ready to do a new small retaining wall with some nice blocks to replace the brick and cemented in rocks around the raised garden beds cemented in river stone "was the fashion at the time" the house was built. I currently have a pallet of retaining wall blocks and 2 bulka bags of 20mm blue metal to replace the wood chip that is in the raised garden beds around the house 4. I now have 3 big raised garden beds for out the back to grow some vegetables, about 70cm high, 200cm long and 100cm wide 5. My 2 compost bins are already pretty full with brown, green and kitchen waste from the landscaping I'vedone so far, but they will probably take a few months to break down, so anything else that gets chopped, trimmed, and kitchen waste will just start filling the base of the raised garden beds to about 30cm before I start throwing 40cm of good compost, and stuff, for the vegetables to grow in, I'll need a few ton of compost and soil, but the local supplier can sent me bulka bags of the stuff Basically the logs, wood chips and a few strategically placed rocks for drainage, will give the beds some good organic materials down low to break down over time, and they will hold moisture during the warmer months to save the water in my big arse water tank if we don't get alot of rain So, all in all, the car and house mods are going well, and I'm really enjoying being retired, I sleep in too 0700 and slowly plod around inside until I feel like actually doing anything, and only work in the yard for as long as want, which has actually been alot over the last few weeks,  although when you look at it, it seems that not a huge amount of work has been done,  until I look at the before I started the work pics Happy days and good times indeed 
    • hahaha yeah. Plan is to get side skirts and probably just rear pods. But going to do them one-by-one. I've got a set that I really like from RHDJapen, but that one isn't shipped to AU. So need to find someone who can get it for me
    • Here's an idea, answer the questions I asked you as they are trying to work out WHY the LSD will be binding up in a straight line.
    • You haven't driven many modern cars then have you? Most of them have sfa steering feel with their stupid electric bullshit steering systems.
