i have the same turbo but think imma change housing to something bigger from the start...like to an .81 or possibly a .96 but i doubt the .96 what do u guys think?..i think the .68 would boost too quick for daily driving i want something that spools hard in mid-range and top-end..???????????????????

The .68 is too small for a 346 engine.

I have a MP T-70 with an oncenter .96a/r ex-housing and it spools very quickly and seams to make great power ( I have not been to the track or dyno yet). I will say my car feels quicker than it did with the TTI T-76 at the same boost level, and the car put down 523 at 10 psi with that turbo. I think they are a great bang for the buck turbo if you don't need more than 650rwhp (with a front mount system).

So it sounds like a .96 exhaust housing is sufficient. Do you have any pictures of your setup?

I have the same set up. I put the .96ar housing on mine, and it spools almost instanatly. I couldnt be happier with the turbo. Now its time to go bigger.

Definatly go with at least a .96a/r on ALL T-4 turbos that will used for a front mount single turbo system on ls-1's. This will help keep the exhaust pressures as low as possible when making 600+rwhp.

I will try and take some this weekend and shoot them your way.

Later,
Dave

Pictures would be great. Everyone seems to think that a MP T70 is not big enough for a stock cube LS1. Its good to see that it works well in milder applications. I am looking for a mild combo with 500-525 RWHP. Keeping boost levels as low as possible while getting that power level.

What cam are you running Dave?

It'll do 500-525 rwhp easy. A couple of mustangs have made 700rwhp with the T-70 on 306 and 331 ci motors. I'll probably max out the kit before the turbo. So far it's been a great little turbo for me, considering it cost around $600 total (this includes the $50 for the .96a/r housing from ebay) and I have an extra .68 tangental housing (which I need to sell). I'm going to see how close I am to my buddies PTK cobra (running a PE 76-GTS 550rwhp at 10psi) and that'll tell me about where I am.

I have a lunati single pattern cam (real similar to MBI's B cam) 221/221 .558/.558 on 114.

The T-70 will work, but your right the .68 would choke the motor. You would just want to swap exhaust housings (there are 2 main parts, compresser and turbine). Best thing to do would be call Jose buy a turbo from him. He know's damn never everything about turbos and he can get you components that would work perfectly for the set-up you have in power range you are looking for.

Like Dave said the 68 will choke that motor off quick, especially with a p-trim wheel.

So Jose, what t70 would you recomend for a mild 355 then (650 rwhp +/-), running mild boost (around 15 psi) limited to 7000 rpm's?

If I had to buy a 70, if space limited the 70GTS, if not space limited then a GT42-70. Leaves you room grow to large compressor wheels without having to redo the system.

That unit is even smaller, since its only a T3 flange unit.
