I heard they may be comparable to a s475 borg warner and I think the borg would make 800rwhp on a 5.3. On my ls1 its making near 800rwhp and its not maxed out yet. Close but not quite lol.

Plus the gt45's I've seen on ebay have several different sizes of compressor and turbine wheels.

I was going to get the cxracing gt45 but ended up finding one that was a little bigger on cold and hot side , forget the actual size but it seems to be putting out great on my 6.0 and full boost at 3,000rpm with iats in the summer raising very slowly at 10lbs. I think its a great turbo for a smaller motor.

I've seen a 4.8L with a cam and some 799 heads make 730whp with this turbo thru a TH400 in a Nissan 240sx on a mustang dyno. The car went 9.10@147mph.
