Default MP70 first impressions

I finished up the MP70 swap on to my sts kit earlier tonight. I took it for a test drive to check everything and so far so good. I am using a .81 AR housing and so far it seems to spool the same as the 60-1. I haven't went WOT yet but the drivability with this turbo seems better. My part throttle response is better and the turbo is much quieter which I assume would be due to the four inch inlet versus the three inch on the 60-1. I tried brake boosting in 4wd and it spooled to 5psi as easy as the smaller turbo. I can't wait to start tuning it and go for a high boost run.

Thanks but no videos yet. I haven't had time to do any tuning yet so it's just sitting in the driveway getting lonely.
