Standard Turbo/X50/GT2 Question...

Still trying to understand the differences in HOW these cars make their power. Can someone explain? Does the X50 package include a larger turbo and more boost over the standard 996 Turbo or does it have larger internals? What about the GT2 does that have the same power setup as a 996 Turbo equipped with the x50 package? I am not sure which models have larger turbos and better internals or if the power increase simply comes from running more boost.

Thanks guys.

From what I understand both the GT2 and the X50 use larger K24 turbo's instead of the twins K16's.
