I think it sounds better in person, the camera just doesn't seem to do it justice

Sounds really good ferret!

The VF52 will be of benefit when racing someone and overtaking on the freeway, otherwise no benefit (besides knowing you have the legs there when you need them . The VF46 boogies a little sooner than the VF52.

I picked up a lot of torque too which made it feel much faster when boost came on. I have a comparison graph on my page at the bottom under my drag times if you're interested
As Tim said though, definitely not needed, but it does feel a lot pokier with the 52.

After all my talk about the VF52 only being a minor upgrade from the 46, this one popped up at great price and I couldn't resist It is a great turbo for the street though, nice power in mid-range and quick spooling like the 46 but keeps pulling to redline.
My dump pipe will need modifying to fit as the wastegate setup is quite different so when I can have that sorted it'll be back to Coyote for a full re-tune

Nice!
How different is your dump and why? Vf46 has an identical rear end iirc?
