anybody know anything about this model turbo, more specifically I am looking at the 56trim .89a/r I believe. The main things I am looking to find out are streetability and reliability/efficiency and how much it lags in comparison to the smaller model (52T .73a/r) . Hope someone can help me out. Thanks !!!

I can't remember the specs on mine. Rob Cadle spec'd it out for me, and I haven't seen it in a long time. But I can tell you mine starts making boost at 3100 RPM and is very responsive. I know that's probably not all that helpful. Here's a picture anyway.

get the .73. better transient response, spoolup, etc. I think thats the one Zak got. The .89 will support more power, but won't be as responsive. the .73 should do over 400.

your right, the .73 is more responsive and will hold up to 425 i believe, but i can get the above mentioned for at least 1000 dollars cheaper than the other one... im just tryin to figure out if saving 100+ dollars is worht a little lag.. whataya guys think???

well shit! if you can get them that cheap, buy it and buy the .73 housing direct from HKS and swap it on. . If you can get a lot of them this way, buy them up, swap the housings, and sell them!
what is the price you are getting for these anyways? for each model. There is a HUGE range of prices people sell these for because not many people sell them, so make sure you are really going to get a good deal. Ron has a couple for sale in the For Sale section for REALLY cheap - cheaper than you can buy one normally, so check it out.

*ahem*
Are you going to buy it or what? The HKS Goods Master lists 470 as max output for the TWO 3037's I have for sale.

*dooohh*
looks like Ron caught me doing some research!! Well I'll be in Cali next month (sometime in early to mid May) so if you can PM me your number, we can do business in our lovely home state! I'm in for sure though, I doubt that price can be beat!!!

I believe Andris is correct on all counts. And yeah, you can just get a different housing from HKS if that's what you want to do... easy to swap out.
