The SC61 is a really large turbo. It's in the same ballpark of power as the GT35R, but it spools slower. Both the SC61 and the GT35R would require the use of race gas and boost above the 25psi range to get the full potential out of them. On pump gas both these turbos would make the same amount of power as the GT30R usnless you used some type of alcohol injection. I'd say go with something along the lines of the 50 trim or GT30R for pump gas and the occassional use of race gas and higher boost. They spool much faster. But, if you don't mind running race gas alot then go with the GT35R. This is just my personal opinion. It really depends on how far you wanted to go with the car.

I know TurboTrix made 420whp with the RnR 50 trim on a car they tuned with the AEM EMS. So 440whp is very attainable with the GT30R and a standalone. Also, Ryan has some awesome prices.

It depends what on compressor housing you get, the TO4E is a 3" inlet and it will work with most normal intakes but not all. If you contact RnR, Ryan will be able to tell you what will or won't work. Otherwise you can buy a hum or stepdown hose to get a good fit. If you get the TO4S housing you will need to get a 4" intake or a stepdown hose to go from 4" to 3". If you use a 4" intake you will need a slim radator fan or to do some serious fab work on the stock fan to get it to fit correctly. It doesn;t come with an intake tube unless he has revised his kit.
