I comopletely understand....
2nd gear part throttle breaks the tires looose... and for 100's of feet....
You have to learn to roll into the throttle and us various pedal pressures to get it to stick.... it takes time but it's also alot of fun.
It's about like me... I finally got a 22psi run in and made 423 and 419 so it's pretty comprable... and the turbo's are pretty close.

Our turbo swap intake is made to fit the S200 Borg Warner turbos on our manifold. If there was enough interest, we could sell a version for the stock turbo.

not that its not believable, just i havent seen it done on that size turbo! (besides zzp's 252 #'s)
congrats, what rpm did it peak at? I love the numbers lnf's are starting to put down. If i wasnt ***** deep in a sleeved turbo lsj I'd be switching sides lol

On the street settings, about 4.2 seconds. With 1st and 2nd gear boost turned up, mid-low 3s. With ALS, possibly 2.9 seconds. Of course this is traction limited. Street tires aren't going to get you anywhere close to 3 second 0-60s.

UPDATE
The car now has over 2000 miles on the new turbo setup. Everything is running GREAT!
THe car on the ZZP tune runs perfect in the day to day driving. When you are ready to go fast, the car is ready as well. The car is a blast to drive. When you stomp the gas you better be holding on.
I took the car to the road course a week ago. The car drove great there as well. I did not have alot of track time on that day. I stayed on my lower boost tune( 350-370whp) I go back on May 7th and should be able to run with the higher boost. The car running temps stayed at or below 200.
ZZP did a great job with the car. They have been there to answer any questions i have had during the entire time.
I will update again soon.

I also wanted to add an update on the clutch. I got the ZZP stage 4 plus clutch and alum flywheel. I also got the adjustable clutch rod. The clutch has been holding up great. The clutch was letting out very close to the floor and at times was stiff to get into reverse. I adjusted the clutch rod and everything is good.
THe clutch is a little heaver then stock, but I do not have any chatter or any other issues. The clutch has been smooth since the start.

Just ordered a new camera for better sound and car videos.
I instruct at the track so I was able to go out with the full race setup cars.
I have the power, i need track tires to corner better.
