Very little - I believe they are identical to the GT28RS except for a larger compressor

The downside does seem to be that extra lag while the upside might be difficult to realise on a coop unless you have all the right complementary intake/exhaust mods.

it would be laggy, and need higher revs than a std coupe is designed to run

Fergie tried the 3071r, before the high boost melted his pistons.

The 2871r would be laggier, but you would gain in efficiency at the top end, but t en you'd need uprated internals and ECU to take advantage of this

sticlh has one of these fitted to his coop he has 400 bhp but 600 rpm more lag than .86 rs, simple trade off 600 rpm for 50 bhp which is best is a matter of your driving style, but i know for sure which would be bst on the strip a 71R <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />
