Now I do have many factors I must tell you about before you say which one here they are:

1.Gs-t Its fwd I would be sliding and burning more rubbers then Jenna Jameson!
2. No AM Lsd
3.Spool matters to me.
4.I am looking for quickness rather then high speeds.

All help would be most appreciated.
 
I think these two turbo are two very different turbos. At least in size. One is rated at 52 lbs and the other 65 lbs thats ver diffrent. The 3052 will spool faster but the 65 will way more. How much hp or what time are you planning to hit??

But I heard nothing but great things of both of these two turbos. I have the FP 3150, and love it.:thumb:
 
For your wishes I think you would benefit more from the 3052 since your not going to be taking advantage of high spools. Although you would love having a high spooling turbo on a gst (they pull like a raped ape because no drivetrain loss.) The 3065 is a beasty turbo but if you want something to spool at lower rpm def go with a 3052.
 
Another vote for the 3052. Although after my first day at the dyno, I wasn't super happy with how things were going on pump gas, but the 3065 will likely react similarly. After buying my 3052, I thought for a moment that I should have went with the 3065, but I am happy with the selection I made. Really, I don't feel the need to go any larger than the 3052 until I make over 500whp. :)
