I have no first hand experience but i know a few locals have tried .60 trims on imports with VERY little luck. Your car is definitely impressive

It could use a bigger turbo like a BW s475 or s480 On the vid of the dyno pull it was 93+ and high humidity on its 12th pull, she was warm Said pull made 593 HP and 724 tq With a 30min cool down 613 HP and 758 tq I was trying to start the pulls at 3800 but dyno could only bring it down to 4200 With cooler weather I'm shure I could hit 800 on the tq, well or BOOM LOL

Those turbos are cheap for a reason My cheap turbo has been on my car for over a year and took some serious abuse including lack of oil, a return restriction, and a few lean conditions in which my pryometer read almost 900 deg. and is still going strong. For $263 to my door vs $600+ I can buy one more before I reach the cost threshold. Glad to see another person debunking the cast piston/stock motor myth too

That's rather rich, Reliant goes through the traps at 1700F
