If you still have the stock twin setup and chasing up to 400kw, you will save an absolute packet by running -5s. Going T04Z is more going to be for chasing 450+, so you will have the added lag to go with it.

^ Mines GTR runs HKS GT2530s...

The Precision turbos are the ones that don't seem to do much without using ethanol or race gas, there are some decent EFR results on pump gas - even at conservative boost levels.

Which ARE 2860-5s.

Garrett -5s are not the same as HKS 2530's.

But if you want to do it "right" you would add a pair of Tomei dumps and a equally good set of front pipes... and maybe do the divider mod on the merge pipe. Edging closer to price of a single.

email geoff at full race and ask about his borg warner turbos kits with twin scroll manifold, got mine for under 4k delivered from the states

Which one did you go with? The airwerks turbo's really are a very good deal.

Garrett -5s are not the same as HKS 2530's.

Yes housings are not identical, however the specs are the same.

I will agree they are not identical but I will say that -5s are as 2530 as 3076R is 3037.

No they aren't, Scott... run a different compressor wheel which don't come with any of the GT2860 Garrett combos.

[GTScotT]

That information is contrary to anything I have found on this site, care to link?

You sre the one questioning it, look it up for yourself... compare the inducer/exducer measurements for the two turbos given by HKS and Garrett for the respective turbos
