I conceder my 16g purchase a waste of time and money.

I went from a ported 14b to a br20g and the lag difference was almost unoticeable.

If you want to get a real upgrade where the power will be worth the extra lag then just get a garret straight T4, 60-1, 1.06 w/stage 5 wheel and youll be set

boooo!! Like I said, I went from a ported 14b to a 20g and the lag difference is not bad at all, but the pull from 6000 to 7500 rpm's is light years ahead from the 14b. Even on the mid range feels stronger than the 14b. I say the 20g (at least br20g) is worth the money. Many people running high 11's low 12's on pump gas with it.

I highly recommend the br20g and stay away from the hahn super 20g (nothing super about it) Keep in mind, a internally gated 20g will have more lag than a br20g with a nice external. Anyone that says that the 20g is crap, needs to ride in a car with one. The only street turbo that's just as streetable and is as proven is the fp green.

My BR 20g is coming soon. I had the flapper removed and I'm running a Victory Performance o2 housing that supports the Tial 35mm, 1.1 bar spring with atmospheric dump.

I'll leave feedback as soon as it's installed and dyno tuned. I'll have dyno sheets at the end of the month. But wish me luck. I can't afford a FMIC so I'll be running on the stock SM and piping.

Don't know how this is going to turn out but I know I'm staying on 93 octane limited to 18psi for a while.

I wish people would read post before they reply!! The guy went from RACE GAS AND 23PSI and 12.4 to PUMP GAS and 12.3 with day at the track with minimal tuning!!!!! Thats the shit!!!

I also think Hahn Super 20G is a good turbo. I have one and I love it, it just isnt big enough for my goals anymore.
