Opinions - GT3040R?

Do you happen to know the specs of this GT30R variant? I'm trying see how it compares to a "standard" GT30R. I'm interested in the wheel size, trim & A/R for both the hot & cold sides. I'm guessing a .63A/R on the hot side?
I don't. Dave would know but there is not any markings on the hot side. I think it is a smaller version but I don't have any problems hitting 30psi with it. I makes boost super easy all over the place, 5th gear highway hits 15lbs just cracking the throttle.
Looks like my number were off, I got some video of it this am. It was slower then expected but I am pretty sure it is what the car has been doing in the past. It all happens so fast I have trouble keeping track of everything. I did one 3rd gear pull from 2000rpm to 7900 to see what it would do here is how it looked:
3000rpm=5psi
3500rpm=10psi
4000rpm=19psi
4300rpm=23psi
4500rpm=25psi
5000rpm=26psi
With a very slight creep to 27psi by 5500 rpm. It will hold 25/26 in 1st and 2nd and only creeps to 27 in 3rd and 4th. I was a little suprised that the boost was only 5psi @3000 but it all happens so fast it is hard to watch the road and keep track of boost/rpm. The turbo hits really hard around 3500rpm and builds from there. I have the BR manual boost control set to hold about 25psi so the it looks like the last 1/2psi are a little boost creep. On a side note 3000rpm to 7900rpm (34.8mph to 91.6mph) took about 4.95 seconds.

I am running the GT3076 with a TO4S compressor and I spool very similar to what you are doing with the AEM up to 19/20 psi by 4000rpm (pump gas). I gots to put together an alky setup to get that 26psi daily. Also need an upgraded head.
