better cooling. i've never seen above 180 with this setup. and being able to rev the engine a little faster since its chain driven. cleans up the engine bay as well cause it takes place of the ac compressor. so i don't have ac lines all in my engine bay. by switching to the electric pump, ac delete, balance shaft delete, my engine revs a lot faster. heres a video of the pump

I cant wait to i finish paying off the balt so i can start seriously building this thing. 1 year left or less though
So far i have to stick to hit 380whp as my current goal with stock internals until then

thats probably what they did. cause i was asking about the ewp anyways. i don't have ANY of the hvac lines haha. no t-stat housing, lines, compressor, condensor, oil cooler, whatever that pipe is called that goes from the waterpump to the housing, etc. thats why i want to go with a different piping setup so all you see is the cold side going in to the manifold. would look so clean

I figured it would not be over kill if i had my tuner dial down the timming a some and set my boost at 10-15psi. I figured its all in the tune. I just figured ball bearing turbo spools quicker and flows more air. then the joural turbo.s do. so i figured that would be the turbo to go with. an like someone said almost no lag which is a good thing.
would i need 78lb vavule springs and netural balance shaft ? to for this turbo build ?
