New info posted on HRC site here (scroll down to table) is indicative of the roll-on comments I made in my OP.
I imagine it's 4th gear like normal so why are the dyno pulls in 3rd?

Is the turbo done at these power levels in the higher rpm range?
I would love to see the hp be a little higher vs the tq. I don't think that tq at 3500 rpms is really gonna help all that much at the track when your power shifting the rpms don't drop that much.
Hopefully someone can get out there and run some good numbers. My goal is 13's on a street tire and 103+ trap speeds.( stock there "supposed" to run 99)

As I mentioned in my OP, the small BW turbo is all in too soon. We need a bigger unit, which, of course will cost us a little on the bottom end, but if it comes in by 3000rpm or so, I'll be happy. I've used Mitsu 16g and hybrid "18g" units before, and they definitely would work. Bill has suggested the 20g, which I'm all for... and though it tends to come in a little higher than 3000 (as high as 3500 in "typical" trim), it can be cleaned up for a little faster response-- porting, clipped vanes, etc.
Seems like there turbo kits are priced pretty fairly. It will be intresting to see what happens as people start to push the limits on this new platform.
