Re: Turbo Suggestions
damn a Sc61 is a big bitch..as far as maintenence,i would check/change your plugs often,and make sure the heat range on them is appropriate for your setup/motor. Make sure your oil lines have no kinks in them,and are not frayed. Also make sure you dont put low octane,or "watered down" fuel in the car.

Re: Turbo Suggestions
JWT tunes are notorious for running conservatively and running a little rich and 'sometimes' fowling plugs. i would run NGK BKR7__ or BKR8E__ heat range depending on boost.
what cooling set-up are you running?
change oil every 3000 religously or more often if it smells like fuel. 10-40 fully synthetic. check oil often, i R&R more sr's that run low on oil and spin bearings than anything else. (well, besides fixing wiring problems, but it sounds like yours runs well).
if it where my car, i would put it on a dyno just to make sure the engine is running good AFR's.
down the road, you would get more out of that turbo if you upgraded the cams and intake manifold.
