stick with a vgt for sure...

I appreciate your short and concise answer! Part two here..SPE with 360 thrust bearing VS streetmax? A 66mm seems kinda big for my goals but unsure if it'll spool quicker than a normal 66 since it's VGT

i avoid SPE. Midwests' Streetmax X is 66 as well, also with a 360* thrust bearing. Best thing is they have good tuning as well. Spool is not affected as the turbine side is stock.

Why avoid SPE? Seems like a good deal since it includes all piping intercooler and turbo with thrust bearings

I just dont like the way they do business...I guess you are too new here to remember the chitshow that went down a few years ago with them on here.

Also, I haven't met anyone yet that likes their tuning.

Yea my brother had SPE tunning on his 13 and he switched in less than 30 days to GH tunning.

So from what I gathered here is the 15-16’s have a different turbo and make a bunch more power?

Correct

I’ve seen 600rwhp out of a hot tuned 15-16’. If that’s true. That’s amazing.

Does anyone here have experience using a ‘15 up gt37 with gt4094 inards?
If so who did your software to help make it right?
Im considering building one for my truck, but i wonder if its too big for everyday use.
Thanks.
