No number yet for me... still putting everything back together. But im going with 408, GT91 T6 turbo, 4L80e from Jakes, most likely a 3.25 rear gear, and fuel is going to be E-85. Still need to talk to some of the sponsors on an adequate fuel system for E85 (most likely FIC 2000cc's and a large pump), but i wanna run 15-18lbs on the street and 20+ at the track.

Boost is restriction, your looking for a certain CFM. Use that to match the Turbo you need.
GT91 Turbo from Jose at Forced Inductions, 1.08 A/R.
You will DEFIANTLY want to run Methanol, since you're not running E85.
