Question Upgraded Turbokits with Stock Engine

How many people on this site are currently running an aftermarket turbo kit (AMS, ATP, Buschur, RNR, etc.) with the stock engine besides say head studs and cams?

What kit are you running with supporting mods, where does the turbo begin to spool, and when do you achieve full boost?

How long (miles) have you been running this setup?

What power are you putting to the ground on pump gas and race gas and at what boost level?

I plan on doing a complete engine build in the near future with aftermarket intake manifold and TB, but was thinking of putting a bigger turbo on the car cuz the stock turbo is so maxed out as of now with my setup

PS - Tuners please chime in with your comments as some of you were testing your turbo kits on the Evo for some time with a stock engine per say, at least a stock bottom end.

If you are going to build the motor you'll want a new turbo.

Studs going in soon. Kit was installed about 2 weeks ago. I've barely been driving it though, only cause i've been using company vehicles and i've been working like an animal. Stock studs are good up to 24 psi.
