I really all the pages of this thread pretty much lol. Btw the guy that did 537 wheel on e50 with the previous revised turbos his YouTube name is vehicular DIY he also has the spool hpfp install video. His car has hella miles almost 200k. and he mentions the car is not tuned aggressively at all and timing is not pulled. I just received my set of revised stage 2+ DA turbos and they are super solid. Each turbo has balance sheet to it. I uploaded a video on YouTube unboxing them. Next is getting the hpfp helix on the list. Maybe will pull the trigger in a week or 2 idk. Also the guy in the video that did 10.9 has federal 595rs and they grip as good as radials for who ever is interested. Guy with 800 wheel that I know loves them and took it on a ride to 180mph lots of times and they did amazing.

I thought he meant 595rs. I think some people just dont write the full thing idk. Do they have the r and rs different tires?
Yep ... but often better off doing an email reach out or phone call. Many of these guys don't get to the forums with lots of frequency. I don't think the @SpoolPerformance guys are on here often - they've posted every once in a while.

Havent quite got a response from spool.. are you guys using oem torque specs, or just measuring by ugga dugga's?
A TQ spec does not care about the load it's carrying, in this case.
It's about bolt diameter and thread engagement vs material strength.
Use stock TQ specs.
My first assuption was yes use OEM torque specs because you'd think spool would have said otherwise, then I mounted it to torque specs and started thinking twice. Boo.
I didn't find that to be true when I ran them. I've run the r and rr. Neither seemed a good qtr mile tyre but fantastic on the street when warm and dry. Bargain prices.
Negative ghost rider.. I gave it a bit of a jiggle and of course it's going to move a tiny tiny bit, just enough to trigger my thoughts. Too much torque with such vibration could possibly snap one of those long screws.
I believe there r is a drift tire. The rsr or rr whatever you want call it is a 140tw marketed as 200tw and is a good budget road course tire
