Ryan, again i sent another pm today with no answer.. I wouldn't mind getting that DP now, i think i have had enough of the one that is hitting my oil pan.. Thanks

Yeah please let me know what you put down. How much do you pick up on spool going with the equal length manifold. Did you go with internal dump or external?

the 50trim spools up like a gt35r (if not a little slower)....that is with non-equal length manifold vw. gt35r with equal length. Addionally it did make 429awhp on 93 pump gas tuned pretty aggresively. I would recommend a equal length manifold with a gt3037....its the nicest fastest spooling (way faster than a 50trim) setup you can buy for a evo that you don't plan on making over 500awhp with. It spools full boost by 3800-4000rpms and will sustain 28psi and 500awhp on 93 oct with alky injection or with race fuel and still net you 400-430awhp on 93 octane with just a dynoflash....one sick setup and will put you to the max of most of your components unless rebuilt or removed/replaced (ie. stock maf, throttle body, intake manifold , head (before you should do headwork) , and stock rods and pistons). I did 123 mph trap speeds on only 25psi with pump gas 93 octane dynoflash tune (so no advancing timing for race gas ) and essentially letting the race gas run me super rich to 10.4-10.7:1 a/f . I was so happy running 11.5's at 121-123mph all the time without breaking anything i left it like that for a long time.

The 50 trim definitely spools faster than the GT35R with comparable manifolds. We have great success with the GT35R and 50 trim. Just depends on what the customer wants from their car.

yeah you guys make good points....i was using a equal length awesome manifold on the gt35r and the only experience with the 50trim i have was with short runner non-equal length manifold with a slight exhaust leak . The 50 trim should (dual bb or not) spool faster than a gt35r. I still say all in all the 3037 is the best for our motors all around ....do it right the first time.

We are doing another 50 trim set up next week. Here is a short list of mods going on this 05.
50 trim w/equal length manifold
780's, walbro
HKS 264,272, studs
RnR 3"Turbo Back
RnR FMIC Kit
AEM EMS
We should be able to make 400whp on 91 octane at 22psi no problem.

hey Ryan,
What is your say on which spools faster and makes more power?
GT3037 kit or the 50trim kit (both with equal length manifold)??
And could you PM me a price for the GT3037 kit that you guys have?
Thanks!
