Kinda flush. Fitment is something. ADM as F*ck.

The dom 1.5 is a x3071 set of wheels in a blouch modified housing. It is by far the best of the bolt on turbos in that size. In short, it is the one he wants. All of those bolt on Garretts do not perform like an actual Garrett. It seems they are all laggier then choke down, no doubt a function of their prehistoric exhaust housing design. Funnily enough, the peak power is usually on par with the real Garrett, but the area under the curve isn't as great.
The dom 1.5 will get to 310-315 kw at the wheels on a 2.5. A stock 2.5 will last about 20 seconds at those power levels however.
Dom 1.5 is what you want. Your job is to get in Jslayz ear and tell him he is a sissy and he should run a 35r on his motor, then lowball him for his dom 1.5. But shhh. Keep that part of the plan between you and I.

Oh and another edit. The 20gxtr and the dom 1.5 are very similar, the dom can just edge it out in top end performance. So if it comes to buying second hand a 20g-xtr is nearly as good as a dom1.5, we are talking 10-15 hp at the wheels difference, at max potential.

You want to go 8cm rear housing too.

Did you go for the 8 or 10cm rear J?

From what I've read, the lag is only 1-200 rpm later and negligible if using e85.



8cm FTW
