The best choice at the moment would be the new GTX3582R. Better than GT35R response with more flow than a TO4z.

Do you have any results of this? All the results I have seen from GTX3076 have been average. They had more peak power but also more lag.

No I dont think anyone does have the results yet, or at least there isnt enough of these turbo's out there on similar cars to form a real comparison. One result of more lag is unfortunatlly not enough to form a real opinion. But based on what they GTX turbo's are supposed to do (supported by flow chart data), they should produce less lag for the same cartridge type along with more power.

Someone needs to to back to back testing with a GT3076R and a GTX3076R. Thats the only way to really prove a result.

A lot more than just one result. Subaru guys in the states have done back to back testing.

Lots of info here:

there is no point in oversizing the crank inless you are putting a crank with a longer stroke in and as for the standard size it doesnt matter if you use stock ar aftermarket just after market have higher hp and torque ratings if you want 500 go after market i think the bottem end is rated to about 400 hp

    • Surely the merged entity will be called "Honda" given the relative company values. I've got to be honest, I don't understand how merging 2 companies that missed EVs (despite Nissan making the first mass produced one) will solve their problems
    • If you haven't bought the ECU yet, I would strongly consider buying a modern ECU. Yes it is very easy to setup and tune, however it is lacking many of the features of a modern ECU. The pro plug in is something like 10 or 12 years old now? Can't remember exactly but it is very dated now. In that time the Elite was released and now we have the Nexus platform.  I would strongly consider not buying the ECU that is 3 generations old now (especially as it isn't a cheap ECU!). 
    • Im happy for it as long as it means reanult gets the boot 
    • Sorry I should have been more clear with the previous post.  The block is a sanding block - picture something like this https://motorguard.com/product/motor-guard-bgr161-bgr16-1-rigid-psa-sanding-block-2-5-8-x-16/ The guide coat is the paint It's two separate things I was talking about, there is no "block guide coat". 
    • Maybe more accurately, you aren't just dulling the existing paint, you are giving the new paint something to 'grab on to'. By sanding the existing paint, you're creating a bunch of pores for the new paint to hook on to.  You can lay new paint over existing paint without sanding it, might last a year or two then sad times. The paint will peal/flake off in huge chunks. By sanding it, the new paint is able to hang onto it and won't flake off.  Depends on the primer you are using. When you buy your paint, as the paint supplier what grit of sand paper to use before you lay down the primer.  Use whatever you like as a guide coat. Pick a colour that really stands out in contrast to the paint. So say your sanding/painting a currently white car, using a black guide coat would work well. You very lightly lay the black guide coat down, then as you sand the car with the large block, all the high spots and low spots will stand out as the black paint is sanded off (or isn't sanded off).  When you buy your paint, hit up your supplier for recommendations for what paint to use for a guide coat if you're unsure what would work well with your setup.
