    for a basic v6 id go the gt30 would spool up fairly quick but for all out power bigger is generally better

    That sounds very nasty - and very expensive.

    GT35R with a .82 a/r turbine housing will be more than enough for a daily on 8-9psi. With the bigger 1.06 a/r housing, i've been told it'll reach full boost at approximately ~3300-3500 and it will give you more potential with upgrades later on..

    Yeah I started out hoping for something like that. These days I'm kicking myself that I didn't just get an LS series car.
