ill be corrected if im wrong... but pretty sure a t38 wouldn't work well on that at all. as its still only an 8v head so would be extremely laggy and probly wouldn't make boost till around 5,500-6,000 rpm at a guess. so imo not the correct choice.

i run a KKK26 sort of the size of a t38 and it works a treat. it makes boost around 3-3.5.
