Exactly, its the nature of the beast, you have to give some to gain some. Larger turbine will spool slower but will make more power

i think i want a turbo 700hp supportive max but that will spool up quick without falling on it butt up top. i think the turbo ur running would do that?

Mine prolly makes close to 700rwhp on 15psi, its capable of much more too. If you want to stay at 12psi and make 700 flywheel hp, roughly 550 rwhp, I would say go with the $260 68mm GT45. Itll spool nicely and make that power with no problem
