If i had to do it all over i would be using a s472. Its a little small, but it would be a lot of fun for the 600-700 hp range. I'm really interested to see how this 80m comes on.

I have a gauge for that

Excellent work!
Drive pressure is more a function of engine size and turbine size. Having a lot of wastegate means you can run really low boost, but to run more boost you have to use less wastegate so drive pressure goes back up.
Drive pressure isnt a bad thing per se, it allows really fast spool and good driving manners, but in a race setup you want it as low as possible.

1:1 is what i always go for, if you can get less drive than boost then you have a very efficient setup. I know in the diesel world its extremely important as some of those trucks run like 2:1 which is horrible
