Default Daily driving t4 set up?

I was wondering if anyone had any input on daily driving an s2000 on a t4 set up.
Thinking about picking up a new set up from a member here on the forums but my S is daily on an UR turbo set up.
The new set up would be Pfab T4 twin scroll with a precision 6266 A/R 1.06.
My S has basic headwork (retainers & springs) and also some bottom end work. Could someone chime in on possible cons?
Thanks!

Cons: none
Seriously, I drove my T4 sidewinder setup almost daily (didn't take it out in the rain)

I would consider the t4 the better DD because you have just enough lag where is it won't hit boost unless you wanted to

This is a broad question, T4 does not instantly mean laaaggggg. You can have just as laggy T3 setup as you can a T4. The first question when choosing any turbocharger for any application is what is the desired horsepower, and what your intentions are with the vehicle. "lag" is different to everyone, what one person might not like, others may desire.You normally want the smallest turbo to reach your goals, this by itself will reduce the unwanted lag. There are sooo many variables to the "perfect turbo" equation, we need more info about your goals to help you with a decision.

When I think about it this way, so very very true. I'm looking to hit 500-550 on 91 octane-if that seems out of grasp I will look into meth injection. The car isn't often abused but it does go through the occasional midnight fast and the furious bullshit. The reason I posted the parts/specs on the OP is because I'm looking into purchasing that at a good price but wanted to do some research first.
Ultimately though my question remains, any real difference between running a T3 set up daily and T4 set up daily besides the extra power when desired?
