What's the spool like with td05-20g xt? I have similar mods to yours but reached the max of my current turbo. I was considering the turbo you have but not sure how laggy it would be with no avcs etc. Do you get full boost around 4200?
Thanks

I was worried initially that it might be a little laggy on the 2l but not at all! Easily hits full boost before 4000 would definitely recommend.
Where are you located mate? Would be more than happy to take you for a spin in it, see what you think.

Finally got my Turn In Concepts shift linkage and STI Type RA quick rack installed 
The car is so much more enjoyable to drive!!! The box feels so much tighter and rarely have to take my hands off the wheel with the new steering rack.

Installed the standard headlights and finally installed the carbon boot that's been shuffled around the house for the past 2 years. Spoiler next.

Yeh so much lighter! If you pull the boot release it flys open, feels like it's going through the back windscreen haha.
