    Rich, can you elaborate on this a little bit? I have a set of small twins now with stock sticks (they will get upgraded soon, but not yet). It spools quick, but I've read that adding a post event will help spool them quicker. For a post event, would it be a good thing to have it cut out at say, 1500 rpms or something close to help get them moving, or am I way off base here? Thanks in advance.

    A post event really shouldn't be needed with what you have, but....where you cut the post is going to depend on where your setup starts to light up.

    Mine start to make usable boost by 1400 RPM's, so anything beyond that would be pointless.

    Now, if you had a big single that didn't like to spool until like 1800 RPM's, then yu could carry that post event a little farther out to add some heat to get it going.

    That's all you're trying to do is toss a little more heat to the turbo to get it going quickly.
