Big Phil was having surge issues because he had an external wastegate that was a bolt on adapter with a 90 degree bend and no porting. I don't think the GT35R is at any risk of running out of air. IIRC Tod is running one in his 650hp beast but then again he works for Garrett and I think his was fairly custom. From what I've been reading it looks like the road to go down with the L28ET. It just seems like such overkill with the specs but people have been very sucsessful with them....

it actually started to over boost, and the loss of steam was on a holset I think... The over boost was a crappy wastegate setup

The M111 is a common upgrade over the listed Meling turbo oil pump. There are a few threads IIRC on hybridz, etc.
