PT106 and 5.3L stock?????
I am simply trying to get some feed back on my situation as i have acquired a 106 and a 5.3 really at the same time, both for cheap, knowing this would be a dog, but seeing that anything is possible now, so really my question to you all is what might i really look into, a little nitrous, cam, or is it even feasible... well to me this insane really kinda honda'ish if you ask me....

Running a PT88 on a 5.3 is a small bit of lag for me, a 106mm .....wooooh . Like the others said, use nitrous to help spool it and when it's lit it will be like a sledge hammer to your backside

I was definitley thinking nitrous to help spool this thing, but how much is the real question...

I'd try and trade it for something, like an S475 + cash on their end. A 106 is just too big for a 5.3L. Someone said something about 2Js, you have to remember that they are buzzing to 9+K RPM.

ditch the 106. it will make the power. but it will only make it after it gets in the high rpm. your going to want the power to come on and stay on. nothing worse than seeing the supra guys claiming 1000whp and then seeing the dyno and it spools at 7 grand and spikes the dyno. then they go to the track and do a 1.8 60 foot ...and run a 10.90 with a stupidly high trap.

thanks everyone for their input so far, I knew this turbo was going to be way too much for this engine, but at the same time im so curious to see what it will do. Plus everything will be in place when I do decide to go bigger cube..

Just do it man. What's the specs on the turbine? Sure it'll take a while to spool but it would be insane when it does! If you don't like it, just sell it and put something else there, the only thing wasted is a little time, but hell I'd do it in a second. Oh btw, if you do decide to sell pm me please
