Yeah I always wondered too why people wouldn't want the shortest runners possible. I think mine are either the same length as yours or maybe 1/2" to an inch longer and my spool is ridiculous. It might be due to the turbo, or when I went to a slightly smaller IC, but I start boosting around 2K rpm and I hit full boost probably around 3300-3500. I wouldn't trade it for the world. It's what I've wanted for so long. My only problem is it hits so fast and so hard that I have to turn down the boost duty cycle in first, second and a little bit of third gears. But I figure that's a good problem to have lol.
