The kit that Greg sells and the one I did were identical other than I put mine together and used aluminum rods.

Occasional racing and shifting high is fine, in fact I am starting to think that going higher is even safe.

Also on pumpgas it does make torque more like the full power graph, playing with the boost controller I got some of that back. 20psi comes at 4400 or so despite fuel or boost level.

The info I have seen for a 2.4 is saying 8k is max. Do you have documentation for 2.4 rev limits?

If you want a smaller AR size it will spool stupid fast but you'll suffer on top end..its what you want and what your goals for the car are... honestly if I had a 2.4 block.. I'd autox the **** out of it.. drag racing and street car assault it wouldn't be exactly cut out for...

the 33R on our TA car has made 527whp on straight pump gas alone. That is on our mustang dyno at 27psi.

the billet 35RB holds the pump gas record at 587whp on our dyno over other built motor cars on bigger turbos etc.

just FYI
