          I would go for the HX35 if I had to choose. But I still feel the hx30 is a bit more responsive on low revs but not what I expected, still the 30 it is a very decent sized turbo for the M20 if you can get your hands on one. I believe they have the same size hotside housings so the spool time is quite similar, someone correct me if wrong

            i want to run ablut 7-10lbs of boost and run a 3.25:1 lsd so low rpm boost is a must. I would like to see at least 4lbs before 2k rpm. Want something with a linear feeling like my old 1.8t.

                Do you have more pics of your car (more angles) ? I'm currently building some RS001 and I'd like to see how they're poking in 15x9. Also, what size tires are you running?

                Thanks...

                        Sure, those are from before I refurbished, tires are 215/45 rear 195/50 front. They rub in the back because I havent rolled my fenders...

                          Oh wow...
                          Is that the "machine" you speak of?
                          You put them on the car, jacked up, and just polish them like that?

                          If so, thats awesome.

                            I polished a lip on a tire balancer before, but on-the-car looks like a good idea too!

                                Yes just jack it up on the diff:)

                                No I also had a polishing machine on there after I finished sanding

                                Just watch out not to try this with your garage door closed !:crazy:
