Yes Don but what can I say you fine tuned that baby, and have meth injection.

I am assuming you are speaking of Andy M., yes its true he was pushing it, I think more around 26psi, but thats still a lot, but all I have to say is what turbo is he using now??? The BB 50 Trim. 16G was falling off with the stroker.
Yes MHI EVO III 16Gs are great little turbo's that people can do some good damage with, but if I know people, and I do anyone with a boosted car turns to a boost adict very quickly. I know Im addicted after my TSI, then driving my buddy's TSi AWD with a 20G, then driving another friend of mine's 5.0 that has a GT35R on it, Im addicted and will be going with a 35R, I was very impressed by it. Like Spoolin99 said if you have the money for a BB 50 Trim and supporting mods, then go that route because you will be there eventually...trust me. Or you can emulate Dons set-up a bit, and mildly build the block, run a 16G, meth injection, cams, FMIC, ect, ect...
Also either way you go I highly recomend meth/water injection.

I agree as well, but if you have a good tune with the larger tune you will need fine tuning with a smaller turbo.
