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

    • EDIT: Just a little info what my tranny is "doing" :   For the long time the trans do this "bad" sound:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qs_iTXgDt40 It is literally the same sound and same symptoms(when i push the clutch it quites down) So is it really the shaft bearing?   Also:  i found this on forums: The RB20 and SR20 boxes are nearly indentical inside (rb20 has longer mainshaft)and suffer badly from bearing and selector failures when driven hard   The bearing is true and selector failure kinda too...it is "harder" to get into gears specialy when i drive a little bit hard...
    • We will review wtf is going on, but if you made any donations let me know and i will follow it up with the admins
    • See, that button sounds like perfection Duncan! My eyes really don't like light shining at them from a dash when I'm driving. Being part red colourblind, I've found for most cars that I can change colours on, I set everything to red, so my eyes see the elast amount of colour! I miss normal gauges in cars
    • bro, knowing the Japanese in  the 90's, i wouldn't be surprised if they shared components across their model lineup.
    • Maaaan so many "little" things  i rly hope my old RB20 would be "ok" and not too bad. I try to learn what and what not do i need. I look at crossmember at it looks different...even parts numbers are different. Wiring and all that i rly do not know...yeah someone mentioned the speedo thing. On that yoke clip. I rly do not know what can and cant be done "custom" so that is why iam asking to know and not be suprised 🙂  I know what it looks like
