Definitely appreciate it. Will need to consider this build and try and operate within the window of margin.
Sadly I'm watching my 800 go to 700 and slowly die off to 625 or somewhere in the bottom end of that lol
I guess there is no really "reliable" build once in the 600's… seeming it would be best to just avoid the k16's and alpha k28's to lessen the stress and go with something that won't hit as hard but still give the power I'm looking for like 3071's?

But if I was into a fast hard low hit I would go with A28s then.

I appreciate all the info.
Now, A28s or 3071's are the question I'm left with. my only concern is the stress that A28s are known to cause on the rods from such a hard hit… Guess I could always tune it for low torque where its really needed.
Still reviewing Randy's thread… some great info especially with the Proefi info.

I ran Alpha28's on stock internals with 91 and meth with no problems up to 1.6 bars consistently. I made 680whp and 725ftlb+ on BBI's dyno. Since I have built my motor and have recently ran 850whp and 857ft lb with 29psi. You will love the Alpha28's hands down best turbo all around. By the way a few time I ran the car at 1.8bar with C16 and/or MS109. The internals were flawless when we opened up the motor, not a single misalignment in any of the components. The supporting mods are very important. You can check out my build here on 6speed. GLWB

I was talking with a local tuning shop a few days ago and telling them my plans for a build and they warned me against meth due to not being able to control the correct amount that is making its way into the cylinders and that its been know to cause issues with only 2 cylinders cooling and the rest of the motor still continuing to run hot. was warned that I would not be able to completely tell unless I was running the Proefi
Any thoughts on this?

I dont trust meth. Just run this setup....
16g billets or 18gs
72 pound injectors
70 mm exhaust
2 1/2 inch Y-Pipe
Upgraded intercoolers and boost hoses
1.5 bars of boost
EPL Tune or Markski 911 tuning
You will be around 580whp and you will be very happy at 700 crank hp anything more then that crap will start breaking on you.
