Precision 6870 gen 2

Hey guys I'm new to forum and hope I've put this in right section  

Has anyone used a precision 6870 on a rb30 and had goood results?
I'm thinking of going down the precision path as all I read is great things about the gen 2 range as far as peak power at lower rpm is concerned compared to other comparably sized turbos.

Ive always had Garrett turbos and was going to buy the GTX4294 just because the spool time would be a bit better and it predominately a street car. I am chasing about 500-550kw at the treads. 

Many help would be greatly appreciated.

I'm not really hung up on any certain manufacturer as they all do great things for different setups. I'm more so trying to get a feel for precision and what suits the best turbo for my application. 

From what I've read so far the 6870 is good for about 800hp at the tyres on a rb30 so I didn't think it would be a case of "over turbo". Considering 760hp is about 550kw. 

6870 on 3L is your best option it's like a 6466 on a 2.6, you'll make the power of those smaller turbos and won't be working the turbo as hard (safer too)
it's 3L spool and torque is on your side

BTW i have a brand new 6870G2 if u like

    • Evening fam, Pretty much what the title asks, I have looked all over and can’t find a proper answer expect one post from almost a decade ago which is vague. ive seen photos and they look pretty much identical, would an r33 GTR N1 reo work on an r32? reason I ask is they are cheaper to buy… $700 compared to 1k+ for an r32 n1 reo
    • Couldn't help myself, had to start putting it together.... It really is a solid bit of kit.  Probably stronger than i would have made it myself to be fair! 🤣🤣 Sweating like a pig after that.  Bloody hot and muggy day today, time for a swim now!
    • Yeah was thinking that. I've had the car go lower idle possibly around 650rpm every once in a long time after pouring fuel and would sound quite rough like a misfire, almost like it's shit fuel or something but who knows.
    • @Wazmond you are correct, my bad, was not my intent    https://www.facebook.com/share/15ZMn5oXtc/ Updated Event (so its not private and can be shared easier)  Attempting to coordinate a big push of Stagea's to this years GTR Festival. Great event last year and hoping for the same this year.    I've emailed them to ask to set a location aside for the Stageas for the show and shine - they are happy to do so if we can get them numbers, I'm happy to keep track of that. Entering as Nismo category.    I'll be road tripping up from Melbourne, would be cool to convey if people are interested, maybe there is SAU convoys from each capital? If you have ideas about that let me know.    https://gtrfestival.com.au
