Some guys still swear by the S300 series (think Tippy is running that).
Yes, the EFR's are pricey! Not worth it.

But, I have the Joe Schmo S-series, the S366 (66mm comp) to be exact. That turbo spools stupidly quick for having a gargantuan turbine (73mm exducer). Some here used the S360's (60mm) but weren't raving about them, so there's that.

The boost recovery is insane on mine. I put a YouTube video showing my idiot light indicating 1 bar on the boost gauge. You can see the light illuminate nearly instantly between shifts.

I think the S362 would be sweet as it's right there in size with a GT35R in compressor size. How quick does the S362 spool compared to the GT35R? Dunno. But, if the GT35R is too far out of reach, the S362 may work as a cheaper alternative.
