          Yeah, thats the thing, I don't think I'll be playing around with alignment too much since I don't have access to an alignment rack and don't wanna be going back and forth from street/auto-x alignment.

          I gotta decide wether or not I wanna get coilovers or a nice springs/shock combo.

                no, chris decided to be a d-bag and sell it to someone else before checking his email. and I am not paying ams's full price of $900 for a t3/t4 turbo. the 3076 will spool faster anyways. except now i have to run water lines. what a pain in the ass.

                    1.Ask faber if you need a fast spooling turbo.
                    2.Your turboing an N/A motor and your worried about running water lines?

                                  haha, can i start being a jackass?

                                  your running a log right? shooting for like 450hp+, right?

                                  now i have heard you talk about spooling fast, do you just like to spin everywhere? i mean seriously? what does spooling at 3000 vs. let's say 4000 do for you when the turbo dies up top? 3076's don't flow alot. hell there pretty much a 57 trim.

                                  so now don't take this the wrong way but it doesn't seam like a very good turbo for a 2.4l truck motor.

                                    at least he wants the .82R, which will affect spool. to the slower side. top mount FTMFW

                                        it should net me roughly 400-450whp...and yes, i know that logs are not as efficient as equal length tube, but you can control wheelspin with throttle control, you dont have to bury your foot every time you press the gas pedal...there are plenty of people that use this turbo on this motor, also a very popular turbo for the rb25det, which is a whopping .1 liter larger than the KA. and like faber said, it will be a .82 a/r. and this turbo is more efficient than a 57 trim, so there is more headroom, to a certain extent. I am not claiming to be a turbo genius, but I have done my homework/alot of research.
