You still won't see 500 on pump with the SS housing. It's just not the same as a Vband housing turbo kit in regards to flow. When going with the SS housing, the price difference between the whole setup vs just getting a turbo kit start to become somewhat negligible. A ball bearing FP SS setup will run close to $4k once you factor in the waste gate, down pipe, manifold, and intake. And the SS red spools similarly to the two vband turbo kit options mentioned, just with less power potential on pump due to back pressure.

Ive been in the DSM game since late 90s and only had a moderately large turbo for a couple years. I always hated the lag and lack of response. Now I get 300tq by 32-3300 and still make right at 500whp. I also tune out big torque spikes since that just upsets the car when it hits and breaks parts.
One of the things thats always been great about the 4G63 community is people are always willing to push way beyond what an efficiency map says to find out how much you can get from a turbo so you dont give up the response.

Not to steal the OP's post, but still keeping on the longevity and quick spool note, what is the best turbo setup for at least 500 whp and 400 tq and quick spool on a 2.3 motor with an Evo IX with 93 octane in your experiences? I'm kind of noob to turbo upgrades so I hope you don't mind the question lol Cheers!!

Yeah, I've doing a lot of searches and reading up on the forum, but I just can't seem to get all the right (complete) info so I thought I'd ask for personal experiences now. lol I was leaning towards either going with a Gen 2 GTX3076R or FP Black on 93 pump gas and was hoping someone had experience with both so they can share their thoughts on pros and cons along with what kind of support mods they had. lol
