VTG upgrade what to go for next?
The efr turbo Sean makes are direct built on. I will be running 7163 in my 996 here very shortly. It does require adding water lines though and the boost controller on the 997.
inlets are 2.5 inch.
inlets are 2.5 inch.
997 turbos have water lines already. they require fitting adapters tho.

I really really appreciate the kind words. Quite honestly I owe all my knowledge to the engineers that have helped me throughout my career. I have been extremely fortunate to work in the industry, have access to so much information and most importantly talented individuals.
I'm still learning Porsche specific related items and the forum has been a tremendous help. The amount of collective knowledge and experiences shared here are priceless. I owe many individuals on here a big thank you.
Because I strongly feel I have been fortunate I try to pay it forward by helping where I can.

Srm kit looks good, cheaper than alphas too. I have a buddy who is also deciding on turbos for 900hp. I am leaning towards SRM, I am waiting on some caliper adapters from them I think they are backed up again.
I would love to see them with comparable set ups: 3076 vs the SRM's
equivalent.
I am very impressed with the 3076 with their spool and killer power under the curve for a turbo that is capable of 1000hp(when pushed) . Looking at most 3076's the power band is flat, spools like a lot smaller turbo would and makes great street able power. You squeeze a 3076 and you have power everywhere and flat!! If you put down 850AWHP you are making that for 85% through out the curve with it's awake as low as 3500rpms!
The only SRM turbo's I have seen are making 1100-1200whp, but the power under the curve and spool is nothing like the 3076's & looks like a typical straight line, peaky power band that makes ton of power. I am guessing they are a lot larger turbos then the 3076's then and not a straight comparison.
If SRM has a 3076 equivalent turbo with its power band characteristics would be perfect as it has the BOV built in and it is less $$$. Can't go wrong with that!

Now that I think about it go with a proven builder/company. I like AMS or boostlogic or protomotive, I have dealt with all of them and very happy.
SRM is super flaky with support, doesn't matter how nice a product is if you can't even get a call back it's a no go for me. I was going to order their intercoolers next but I think I'll go with ams just in case we run into fitment issues and need some help.
