installing a VG30DET turbo on my RB20DET would perform better than the stock turbo. Are there any disadvantages to the installation? Would i feel a difference?

I believe so. but I don't know the specs on the vg30det turbo..I think it might be a bit bigger than the vg30et but I don't think by that much.

A tiny bit laggy but should be enough to get you up to the 300s without beating the hell out of it.
