I would think the .83 gated housing may be a good option, it would help keep stuff in check, though the .91 prius already has is a great match
Transmission is on the to do list. Probably later this year. There a local builder who has a decent price and a good rep that we decided to go with.
The 0.91 I already have is also ceramic coated too. When I bought it I figured the 0.91 would be a better match the 180/30s. There a gated 0.83 housing of choice?
Are you going to get that project finished before they ban the sale of #2 oil?
That's what worries me. I didn't figure I'd see it in my lifetime but I have gotten to the point where I fear that a rig or two sitting in my driveway may be on its last tank of fuel.

Appreciate the link. Unfortunately they're out and likely to not see any for a while.
Reading this made me dig up this graph from @PeixinhoI've saved away
The green line is pretty similar in many respects to this build in terms of injector size and turbo. Peak torque exceeds 1000ft-lb and does so at ~2060 RPM. I think billet rods are probably a cheap insurance given this high torque at low RPM situation, especially if I want this build to endure for like 5-10 years. Anyone have input on this?
I just wanted to point out those tests were done on a MAX EFFORT tune. Unless you are towing/daily driving on a heavy race tune then you won't see those numbers on that combo. I don't have the exact numbers handy but this will give you a general idea.
With 205/30
5.6ms 470-500hp (most tuners don't write that hot of tunes... but we wanted max effort)
4.8ms 450-470hp
4.2ms 420-450hp (what most tuners use as a race tune)
3.6ms 380-410 (hot tow tune)
With that said... 205/80 produce drastically different results, basically a lot more HP at lower tune.
4.2 470-500hp
3.6 450-470hp
3.0 420-450hp
I can't remember all the tq numbers... but just wanted to throw out how much PW will affect those numbers
