T series eh bill,still would have gone pukka gt3076 0.63.

GT series have sucky bearings.. plastic cages.

This T series unit has metal case bearings, along the same lines as my GT35 had upgraded to. I dont want cage failure when this babys wound up.
that was my reasoning behind it.

GT wheels are more clipped than the T series, so this, in its .63 a/r hotside should spool just as nice as its GT equivalent, except this one is rebuildable where the GT is'nt

FMIC will fit nice behind the bumper.. but some parts will need to relocate for pipework to run. I'll bell ya Liam and run it past you.
