    the s15 tubby is a ballbearing turbo which means quicker spool and more responsive people upgrade to the s15 tubby for all these reasons, their is very little lag with an s15 turbo also. how much can u get the gti-r turbo for

    I agree. S15 is better option. GTIR turbo is an older journal bearing design and will be less responsive. For the sake of 200 euros extra you would be better off with the S15 turbo
