Okay, with all that being said about sloppy blowing from twins, I happily acknowledge the superiority of a single turbo setup on the RB; however, I still plan on double trouble. I know the -9s were quite popular for some time because they seemed to meet that sweet spot between the -7s and 5s, would introducing VCAM and/or stroking to 2.8L provide the additional displacement/flow to push twins closer to the 500-600 goal? Does it make more sense for a daily to just do an engine overhaul, slap some -7s on it and enjoy a bit more reliable power? Has anyone driven a mine's overhauled and tuned engine? I know they certainly don't approach the power numbers that you drag monsters do down under, but for daily street usage, I just want it to be fun and healthy.

I think for the sake of hopefully avoiding too much harassment when I import it back to the states and then depending on what state I end up in that staying twins is the way to go. I'm in the military, so I could end up in some nanny state that gives me grief.

Hello all...I've consumed many threads from you all for quite some time and figured I may as well going the fray. I recently purchased a 200 R34 that is pretty much stock aside from a HKS mushroom intake and tomei extreme ti exhaust. I currently live in Japan and have been talking with mine's and Garage Yoshida to have it overhauled. Mine's usually goes with the gt2860-1 and -2 turbos from gcg turbo Australia. My question would be are there better options that are a bit more modern such as gtxs? I can even source the Nismo R3s for quite a bit less than the cgc kit. I know there's a hell of a lot more that goes into it than just turbos, but if I am looking for 500-600 whp on a daily driver, what twin turbo setup makes since nowadays? I know there are exhaustive posts about making this type of HP, but I haven't seen much discussing gtx or Nismo R3s as options.
