Which Pyro Dev for Enlarging 4x5 on VC Paper?

Hello,

I've been meaning to try pyro for a while, and figured I'd order some on my next freestyle order. They only carry W2D2, not HD-cat, and PMK, I believe. I enlarge 4x5 onto VC paper, and dev in Tanks and Hangers. I've been using Rodinal so far, on trad films, and would like to retain its sharpness and gain Pyro's stain. Will I see much improvement in my negs over Rodinal for enlarging? What would you reccomend? Thanks.

Same answer I gave you on Large Format Forum.

This is kind of like asking what is your favorite model of car, everyone has a different opinion.

510 pyro is available from Artcraft in a kit form, I like the results I get with Tri-X 400 in 120 and HP5 in 4x5, your mileage may vary.

There are many good staining developers, pick a couple and see how they react to your method of shooting.
