Yep, I see what you mean. However look at the lower revs on the curve. It tracks the stock turbo. Does that mean that it will have great torque for intown driving like the stock turbo does? FBO with TSP Stage 2 gets 270 hp on stock turbo and probably 280 FBO. This seems to add at least 30 hp to stock turbo which would give 310 whp with custom FBO flex fuel tune. Not the 330 - 340 whp that the W1 gives, but keeping the lower torque would be a good tradeoff for a 20 hp loss in top end for a DD.

Can anybody release anything to market for these cars without immediate negative criticism? Let it play out. Dam.

Something to keep in mind is if all these vendors werent releasing anything for our cars think of all the crying. They are press releasing items and stuff is instantly put down.

Knowing that hks usually prices their parts for a pretty penny we are probably looking at $1000 or more for the turbo alone and with flex fuel tune probably another $500 so let’s say $1500 total for just turbo and tune. Is that amount of $$$ worth ~310whp?

I would def be interested to learn more about a mild turbo that would be similar in mid range but could keep power from falling off above 5k rpm...
