Default Everyone who actually has a coated exhaust housing and/or blanket got a ?

Could you tell any difference in spool time? Thats all Im interested in. Im not worried about heat as I have an STS kit. I was dead set against buying another turbo but it seems my current one will be practically useless with my 418. I looking at the pt76-gts or the pt-88. If I go pt-88 its going to be a bit laggy since its a rear mount and it has a 96 a/r housing. I really want that turbo due to its power making ability over the 76, to help with the laggyness I was thinking of getting the exhaust housing coated and a turbo blanket for it. I did a search and there were alot fo people with speculation and saying they wanted one but I didnt see where anyone had in before/after results of just the blanket and/or coating. Lots of people talking about wrapping pipes but none specifically at the single mod of coating and/or putting a blanket on their turbo. So those who have either of them what kind of difference did you see if lag with the addition of either one? Money well spent?

We have recorded over 100' increase in EGT inside the downpipe, 4 inches after the 90 on a Grand National after coating the exhaust housing of the turbo and the downpipe. Heat=gas volume which= reduced lag....
