I really don't get all this hype abot an RS2 Killer turbo. Why not just step 
up to a K27 cold side and the big #6 hot side?? A #8 hot side is to big in my 
opinion unless your running a FMIC and a tubular EM. I had two Garretts with 
#8 before this one. A #6 with a 15 degree clip and a K27 7200 will spool up by 
3500 RPMs and blow the doors off an RS2 turbo'd car from 4000rpm on. I 
have/had both and did many side by side tests and the difference is huge.
