The engine was amazing the turbo was useless on this spec we wanted/needed for the car. (150mph gearing at 8k so needed a little extra for the long straights..)
Put a t04z on it and it made full boost at 4.2k revved to 9k and made 40bhp more without a whisper of surge. No need for the compromise in this case.
I have no doubt you can make a gt35 work but I don't think it suits what we do with the yb as you have a very different outlook on them and they work with the specs you like

Unfortunately for the guys out there who may not be putting it onto a engine completely specced for it, your going to have a horrendous time IMHO!

I don't need to change my spec as it works on a GT35, I would have expected more from a T04Z over a GT35,
If we are talking about other turbo's then the BW turbo is the better one anyway.
