Also that in real terms a borg warner will only spool about 400rpm quicker than say a garret gt3071. Wheras i know that ma developments have shown getting 500 hp out of an internally standard motor, and swear by the response being night and day different to the garret stuff. Im not saying anyone is right or wrong or whatever, just makes it difficult to know who is right or wrong and what way to go.
I would say change tuner lol. 507hp was definitely real but I would have gone for the 477hp on the 7064 I did as it spools about 500rpm better than the 7670.
The 7064 over a gtx3071 was 900rpm better and 335ftlb better at 3800rpm.
