As generic as your post is, a 70 will be fine. If you want it to work now and have room to grow, get the 76.

Im running a t70 from Master Power, so is 1BadLS1. Basically when you max out the turbo you should be somewhere in the neighborhood of 600whp if not more. It really depends on your goal. If your goal is 500whp, you would be better off stick with a smaller turbo that will spool faster.

thanks for the reply my goal is 500 rwhp so the 70mm will be the best route to go and spool faster .I can always step up to the 76 when i get ready to build a forged internal LS1.
