The 87 j wheel turbine seems like a nice option for the street. Id like to try it sometime

And this setup should spool well on the street. I still haven't gotten it turned up over 7psi before it snowed.

Just my experience with my setup so far.

I haven't had any problems holding 8psi with my Tial 44 gate in the crossover on current setup... And that's WOT.... And it prolly would've worked on my new setup too, but I had to purchase a new gate anyways so I went ahead with the 60! I wanna be able to hold a lower boost level for street driving... 8-12psi.. The higher boost level is mainly gonna be for the track!

My truck is mainly for the street. I have taken a lot of heat for not going with the 96 turbine. I am curious to see how it all responds. I think I am going to need a little more converter to help it spool. But again, going for more street, that's why I left the comp. at 9.65.

To the op- I don't have near the experience as most in this thread. But i think a s480 would get you everything you are after.
