I'm asking myself the same question. Space isn't really a concern, I'm just wondering spool differences and if I'd want to spend the extra to go smaller or save money and go t6 flange. So, please post up, I'm in for updates!

I did some research and it seems like the t4 will spool quicker than the t6 but the t4 will hage more backpressure than the t6. I think I'm going to to go with the t6 just to save $200 bucks cause i doubt it will spool that much later than the t4. but ill call them tomorrow to see what forced inductions tells me on spool time

ok so I just got off the phone with them and they said that the t6 with a 1.10 ar is equal to a t4 with a 1.20 ar. and he said that the t4 is more compact and uses a 4" downpipe instead of a 5". he also said the t4 would spool up about 200-400 rpms faster than the t6. so in my opinion I think I'm going to just save my $200 and buy me a t6 version since its not that big of difference in spool time and as for the downpipe I asked if it would be to much of a restriction if I reduced it from a 5" to 4" and he said no. so ill just reduce my downpipe for a 4" for an easier figment. hope this info helps some of you. by the way I'm going to use the s400-72 83 mm with 1.10 ar so I should spool by around 3500 for 10 psi

Everything you said there is right in line with my thoughts and hopes.
I'm thinking the same as you too, t6 frame, same size and ar. Spool time sounds very liveable and I have room to grow if I go with a stroker in another year or two.
The 5" down pipe doesn't bother me either, I already have a 3.5" dual set up now so I'll probably just lol it off at my x and run a 5" pipe right into that
Thank you for posting up.
