I can tell you for a fact....Ball bering turbos are great if you can afford it. My GT4088 isn't nearly as responsive as my GT4067R. That gt4802 that I had was so responsive that it didn't need to be ball bering.

What a/r where you using with the Gt4088 and the Gt4082? Thanks John

If I really missed out on 200-500rpm's quicker spool on a turbo that I ran for 2-5 years, I'd be kicking myself in the ass every time I pulled.

there is no way the difference in spool is 500 rpm.....200 maybe....if you want to gain that spool time, change to a lower (numerically higher) gear....
