New stock frame turbo options from Blouch
With the 2.3 and this turbo, response felt pretty much instant. I had some issues with hesitation due to (I think) way to small of a spark plug gap. But when it was pulling, its ripped! So much so, that I have to get use to it so I can think about how its responding. So far though, and as you can see from the plot, the car just pulled from earlier and pulls longer. Exactly what I wanted.

Had a bunch of people come up to say how stupid fast the car looked especially off the line. And getting off the line is cake. Just hold revs to 3500, bring out clutch till it just grabs then swap pedals. That resulted in full wheel spin through 1st but with still a ton of forward motion.

Has anyone had results with a 2.0XTR yet? I'm debating wether to go with the 1.0XTR or the 2.0XTR on my 2.4 and would prefer the best balance between a wide power-band and a turbo that doesn't fall off up top.
I would def do a 2.0xtr or FP red on a a 2.4L. You'll might still fall off a little bit up top unless your head and manifolds flow really well. On 2.4, a 3.0xtr might be a good idea..
1.0 is way too small a turbo for a 2.4.

From riding in MrFred's car, it seems to start doing stuff around 3500 and really hits at 4k. For anything but AutoX I thought it felt perfect. If AutoX is your thing (like it is mine) then it would probably be too big.
I've also heard that if you don't plan on running over 30psi then the 2.0/3b just isn't going to give you much over the 1.0/full.

It's for track not auto x. I need something than can do anywhere from 360whp up to say 430whp. Some of the fp stuff can't be easily turned down to numbers that low (class dictated), and that's why I was about to by a bbk...
So I think I'd be after the 2.0xtr. Just curious to see what longevity/reliability is, but that's probably going to take a lot more time unfortunately

Pump 93, and otherwise stock motor (exhaust/intercooler). The goal is a turbo that isn't stressed at these levels to minimize enervating extra heat. I reeeeaaalllly want the cbrd efr kit but I don't feel like sling an organ.
I also totally forgot about the fp green...could do a jb setup with stainless housing for cost of the 2.0xtr...

I really like my BBK-3B responsiveness is awesome, but it needs a good DV to work best.
I'm not convinced that in a road course setting transient response is going to make any huge difference, so I'm therefore not convinced I need a bb turbo. I'd much rather run a turbo under peak efficiency than over stress it obviously, that's why I'm interested to see exactly what the 1.0 can do. The heat situation and the volute are pretty much the only reason the free is on my radar since that's eliminated with the as housing.
Dallas is about the only real results I've seen so far for the blouch stuff.
