Last, I'm not sure what Gary & Hap are banging back & forth, except perhaps one may have said "compressor" or "wheel" when what was meant or intended was "turbine" or vice versa. "

Where this seemed to have gotten started was I *questioned* the use of a T04E 50 trim/K26#6 over the Innovative K26 RS2++ in terms of performance delta (Garrett Hybrid vs Innovative RS2++) vs. additional money to integrate the Garrett ($300 if you don't have the hose stretcher tool).  I admitted that I had no hard numbers, I wanted to see a side by side dyno or 1/4 mile data.  it was simply a question.  Hap disagreed. That is pretty much it.  I don't have enough data to make an informed opinion, other than I believe the limiting factor for above 400 ATC HP in both turbochargers is the #6 kkk hotside.  I think Hap disagrees there as well.  

It is nice to disagree in a friendly fashion however.  Who remembers the torsion debates??  Yikes...
