Help me decide if to upgrade to the HTA 86 or not
What's the turn-around time for the upgrade? Similar to upgrading a 9 turbo to a RED?

It's a fun car, I just have to be careful with it, it's kinda like a weapon lol
when the turbo spools it hits HARD, it's almost like your in a human sling shot or your an Apollo 13 astronaut lol

I'm sorry I was under the assumption everyone read the first page first. I have a 10.1:1 comp 2.3l stroker. Not sure where it hit max psi at as my tuner has the logs but I will retune here soon and post the info.

got the HTA 86 in the mail today! It really didnt take that long to get this thing converted, they had fast turn around time IMO! I was eager to install the turbo as I am with every part I get!!!

ya know what seems odd to me? the compressor housing on the HTA 3582 "looks" like it would be better for power since it has a nice smoother shaped inlet. the HTA 86 looks more rigid/less smooth in where it reduces. But hell, I fully trust Forced performance

Looks are just that. The compressor cover on the 3586 is a better design and actually helps with the spooling, which makes the difference in spool between the 3582 and the 3586 smaller than it would otherwise be...
