Your not going to like driving that 1.10 A/R housing on the street, its going to be pretty lazy.

You won't even like it on the track either. I have a similar sized charger that has some work done to it, with a .9 a/r housing, and it still takes me 15-20 seconds or so to build boost on the line. If you had a manual with that a/r you might be ok, but not with an auto. Your gonna have to be able to see probably 2000 rpm no boost stall, before the charger will start to light.

PS my charger is for sale
 
what is the best streetable single there is? here is pics of the std s400 on the right and the s400sx4 on the left.

My data shows the sx4 as a T6 only. SX3 has the t4

Yea I can get t4's, but the sx series are supposed to have a better compressor wheel at least I have been told.
