    Guys, I'm looking at GT3071R options for my AWP 1.8t. Searching has come up short for me on the issue of how spool up would be effected by a 3071R with a 56trim 72AR t25 hotside? It looks like a t3 63AR is the most utilized on setups that I can find. Is there anyone with insight to the housing and hotside that I mentioned first?

    If you'd need more information to be able to say, let me know. Sorry, I'm learning all this stuff at the same time.

    Thanks in advance.

    dont bothr with the t25 flange on a 3071, if you need boost that fast get a gt28

    get a .63 t3, and you will be happy

    After further research, I decided to go with a T3 .63AR top-mount CTS kit. Thanks for your help, guys.

    Haha, thank you! I definitely liked what I saw checking out the PagParts site previously. I just think a top-mount will be easier maintenance wise.

    vband would be nice, but i've heard from people with the CTS kit that the Kinetic manifold and all the hardware bolts up so nice that vband isn't necessary. plus with it being a top-mount system it's arguable that it'll be as easy to work on maintenance wise as a full vband setup.
