What turbo for 750 to the wheels?
I'm building an iron block 370 for boost. My goal is at least 750 to the wheels. I plan on making my own kit out of stainless since it's readily avail (we sell it) I'm fabbing a 9" and going to be using a 4l80e. So, with those power robbing items would a MPT70 get me there or should I get a T-88? I've never had a turbo car, that's why I'm building one. I'm going to be using the L-92 heads and such. This will also be a driver not a track queen.
Also, would I be stupid not to go the truck mani route since they are so cheap? I can get the stainless for about the same price I can a set of manifolds. Actually cheaper
Thanks,
Andy

Im a 370 now and my goal is a little higher then what you set yours at.
Im running a GT42-76.
The truck Manifolds will work just fine. Id go with a 88 so u have room to grow if u ever decide to. Just make sure u use a good wastegate to be able to controll low boost if you choose to.
The 9" and 4L80E is an awsome combo.
Good luck with the build.

Thanks, guys! I was hoping Jose would see this and chime in. I'm not really going to bother him with it until I actually get ready to buy the turbo. I'm sure he gets tons of emails a day.
