Default will s480 work for my goals

Some one has this s480 for sale local to me https://ls1tech.com/forums/parts-cla...ges-lines.html
I was leaning towards a pt88 or a gt91. The car I am building is in the signature below. I am taking out the turbo v6 and putting in an lq4 with updated rods and pistons with ported 317 heads. The rest of the car has gone 130mph in the 1/4. I want to go 150+mph. Will this turbo work for my application and how well. How does it stack up to my other choices. Please give any input or comparison to the other two options. Thanks James

GT91 would lay the smack down on that charger, but nonetheless its a good charger. Its good on the dyno for about 900rwhp or so.

The S480 should be enough to get you into the 150's. Or should i say supply you enough power to do so. It's close but should work fine.
