im sure the spool will be a tad better with a proper down pipe and then once its flowing right. (clocked right, no leaks, machined down adapter plates) but as im sure you know its a larger turbo so itll take a bit longer to spool and imo 2500 isent that bad esp cuz we are autos so we stay in the power band more so and never go out of boost.
looks like you have done the guess work for me. once i have money ill probably be using this turbo. im trying (first) to max out the pump so ~200 whp right?
edit- btw my vote is just run an open turbo (with a filter obviously or screen if your feeling adventuresome)
