Please tell me you are just joking about that boost level on 93 octane alone.

Back to topic.
Why do you want larger turbo if you can't spool it with race gas? Good question.
I had the GT35R on my rather stock 2.0L and hates it for daily driving. Went back to stock turbo within a week.
I'll stroke it to 2.3 and put that snail back on one day.

This is the exact reason for my post. There have been some interesting discoveries lately and I, for one, would like to hear peoples opinions/facts on why they upgraded.
