When I changed up to 11mm on a previous car from maxed out 9mm the difference was really noticable, really pulled hard and made 190bhp over the previous 170bhp. It seemed to feel more comfortable higher in the revs.

A TD04 and 11mm is a good cheap set up for decent power. I'm moving on to more modern efficient fast spoolers now which I believe is the way forward without going down the VNT route. Cost wise yes if you type in "garret GTbla bla bla" they will be expensive yes but do your research keep it too yourself and you can a bargain turbo for £30 like I did
