GT35 = GT35 GT35R = GT3540 as far as i know. There is a lot of bad feeling towards going internally gated, what is the reason? Another question and probably the most important is when these larger GT's make full boost and how suddenly?

Nice information Any opinions on internal gates? calaisturbo.com has a few threads similar to this with only one epxerienced opinion also leaning toward 1.06 ex AR. What about GT30 vs GT3540 arguments?

After a long a tiring read through that never ended RB30 thread up top, I thought I'd ask my questions directly as I have heard there are a few knowledgable people on this board when it comes to RB's and turbos. I have an RB30DET freshly rebuilt using standard internals and 8.3:1 compression. I hope to acheive 250rwkw at 15psi or below as well as have a streetable responsive car i.e. not too much of a laggy feel. Am i asking too much? At the moment I am choosing a turbo and the GT30 with the 0.82 exhaust A/R seems to be the go. The motor is not going in a skyline though, rather a 1000kg or less 260Z so there are some concerns that the 0.82 will come on boost too violently for the light chassis. This has lead a few people to suggest the 1.06 exhaust AR. Having spent more than a lot of new cars these days on this project and not really being close to finished, I am trying to kerb my spending and am playing with the idea of running an internal gate and using the standard exhaust manifold. With this in mind I have seen a mock up of the XR6 turbo for sale. This is a GT3540 running and enlarged internal wastegate in a 1.06 AR exhaust housing. Will this be too big for my application and will the internal gate really hamper things too much? Thanks guys
