I was revving to about 7200rpm and like I said it really could use another 500-1000rpm more to really take advantage of this turbo but I don't think the heads are built to handle it with vanos and DI in the mix. My MR2 I rev to 9500rpm and it'll handle 10,000 no problem but power starts to drop around 8000rpm and pushing it past 9,500 is pointless
Motiv used a FP 6466 on their 829whp pull which the PT 6466's inducer measurement on the comp wheels is slightly bigger than the FP's but the exducer on the comp wheel is smaller. The exhaust sides the same way, inducer is bigger, exducer smaller on the PTE compared to the FP. I'm not sure what turbine housing they used. I went with the 1.0 AR divided T4 because I felt it would still have great midrange but not choke too much up top. Basically I chose my mods around the idea of making a really fast and fun street car. Usable power everywhere and not just one region of the rpm. That's the same concept I apply to all of my cars. I want as much area under the curve as I can get because to me, that is a much more fun street car.
