no way are you getting 400kw with 2510s. seriously. even 2530s are really more a 350-370kw pair of turbos in most cases. you CANNOT have "responsive" and "400kw". I mean standard GTRs are not what I'd call 'responsive' any any bigger turbos you put on only makes that worse. you need to give up one to have the other. you can have responsive if you accept more like 300kw. or you can have 400kw and accept it won't be as fast on the street 90% of the time as a 300kw GTR is. or you can go half way, get the 2530s and have neither the 400kw or the response but fairly close to each.

My advise would be run GTSS, 23psi and you should have beween 300-330kw atw and it will be fast and still fun on the road.

2510's are 'old hat'. Maybe 330rwkw.

You'd you'd say Garrett -9s (aka GT-SS) would be the same ballpark. -9s being the newer tech and essentially a replacement for the HKS2510.

-5s are around a 380rwkw.

2530s are bigger than -5s & will do 400-420rwkw.

All turbos requiring more than 20psi on a 2.6ltr to achieve those power targets on pump fuel with reasonably aggressive tunes.

400rwkw and 'responsive' simply do not go into the same sentence unless you are running a 3.4ltr stroker.

Given there are more than enough threads on GT30, GT35, 2530 & -5s... Go do some reading, all the above info is basically a summary of what you can find in the first 5 pages of this section. Need more info, search
