I dont like methanol/port injections, jb4’s etc, so probably it would be a good idea to move to s55 or at least to b58 platform..
My PS2 spools like stock turbo (maybe a touch more lag WOT - but that is welcomed as it puts less stress on my clutch and drivetrain as opposed to hitting 500+ lbs trq instantly like my stocker did... also helps with wheelspin down low). Its great for daily driving. A lot has to do with tuning for it. A majority of your post is nonsense, I can't take it seriously. PS2 starting to spool at 5k rpm? Where are you getting your information from? Have you ever drove a PS2 N55? I think your feedback would change quite a bit if you did. Basically why PS2 appeals to so many people is it has stock like spool but after 5k rpm it wakes up. Im seeing 50-75+ whp more from 5-5.5k to redline over my PWG stocker. I'm on stock fuel system on 93 at this time. Roughly 17-17.5 psi seems to be the limit for the HPFP.
