IAT stay reasonable too compared to smaller turbos, I originally ran them with no IC before I got my A/W unit.
How did they spool? Looking at the Boost Lab 73s or 76s. Only thing with the 73s is the smallest housing is a 1.15. The 76 is a .91. Both rated for the same power.

Spooled silly, first drive I wish I went bigger as I really didnt notice much change from the 94mm with a 1.24 housing. I ran .96 housings on the 7875's since thats all that came with the dual vband version at the time. They have mirror image dual vband 80's now that come in 1.01 or 1.28

Talked to my builder yesterday. The cathedral heads I ordered were back ordered. Getting a set of rectangular heads, 240cc, instead. Most likely going to run that BTR Trinity intake now. My engine is 3rd in line. So, still a few weeks out. Once I get that, I can plan/visualize what I want to do.
