His words were that the most he had ever seen on a T34 was 397 bhp. If there was one to break that then this would be the one
I am just thinking about putting a bigger turbo on as I know I will in the end. So instead of having more live mapping to bring the turbo up to 2 bar and then going and putting a bigger turbo on in a few months.
I may aswell kill two birds with one stone and have the mapping finished with the bigger turbo.
Wasn't expecting this many replies. So many differences of opinions with so many good reasons for both turbo's

Dont fit a T4/GT30 if you will be happy with 430 /450 bhp.
