The Steed Speed is pretty solid (based on the image of its website).
Unfortunately, it is asking for GT35, instead of GT3076R, which I already have.

Hi Tyraid:
Can you post some images of the installed turbo, from multiple angles for reviews and comparison?
I like to see the options.
What is the size of your downpipe?
I assume there is no rattle or vibration, right?

what is the power comparison with same turbos between the inline pro and full race? i know the tublar equal length does the same, but does it make that much a huge difference?
Thats about the only difference from a fluids perspective. The end result of this is:
-Less turbo spool time
-Less boost pressure required to achieve the same overall power numbers
-Higher power levels achievable with the stock headgasket

Cast manifolds are going to work better with a gt35.
I think someone here has the gt30 and took 20 psi to hit 400 rwhp.

More than meets the eye, however. I was using a VERY restrictive turbine housing for maximum mid-range torque, not maximum top end power. To keep sound down, I retained my HKS Hi-Power dual exhaust which is no more efficient than a stock exhaust. A larger turbine housing and exhaust would have netted me 30-50 more rwhp.

Umm,
I can promise you none of the steedspeed manifolds have cracked, and its tubular inside...

The manifold is certainly not tubular inside. I have a hard time believing that it flows any more efficiently than the Inline. From the CAD model I saw, each individual "runner" is forced to bottleneck at a common collector.
If you call this design tubular, than technically, so is the IP manifold.
