Now with all that in mind seeing he was already running 30 psi that kind of takes the 3065 out the picture and the green even though it wasnt a option in the beginning considering his manifold is t4-t3. So there only so many options if he goes with the 3076 how long you think its really going to last running 30psi ? Thats why i said IMO id go with the 35R. Hes got everything he needs to have it make some good numbers.
B) Turbo failures are very uncommon. You could run a Green, GT30, 50-Trim, or even a std turbo at 30 psi everyday and provided it's fed oil and water properly, I'd be surprised if the turbo did not outlast the engine everytime.

A) When choosing a turbo for a particular application... what boost you may have run in the past really has no bearing in what you might choose going forward.

God that is a bad advice above ^^^^^
Lag is real and a 2 litre with GT35 is IMHO not the best combination at all. Dave Buschur himself I believe said he did not like the combination for a daily driver and preferred a Evo Green on a 2 litre.
An Evo Green car will likely make more hp and torque than a GT35R up to 5k rpm.
If you think driving a GT35R on a 2 litre around town, through bends, out of stoplights, etc is more fun than a Evo Green on a 2 litre I think your smoking something probably.
Think of it this way... your car is dead from 1-4k rpm... then at 4k you'll finally be making some power, but still slower than a green. Then finally at 5k she wakes up and is faster than the green, BUT... on pump there probably will never be more than a 100 hp between the two.

true that
If it was me and I wanted better spool than a 35R but still needed to retain mid-ten second capabilities, I'd get an HTA 3065. It should be very bit as good as a 35R up to 30#, from what I understand.
