I have done the T5 Conversion with Jordan Pagano's kit and his tune. Although my earlier LH2.2 system was tuned about as far as it could go (red tops, Jak Stoll chip, AID, Mitsy 16G upgrade, 3-inch exhausts, headers, FMIC), it was still laggy and weak until the the boost kicked in. The T5 set up drastically improved my low end torque and eliminated much of the turbo lag. The power is also delivered much more smoothly and both my HP and and gas mileage were improved.
It one of the three best mods I've made to my car. The other two were type 8 primaries, and a Quaife LSD. Of the three, it's the one I'd take if I had to make a choice.
