Where is this limited space you talk about? You have the ENTIRE BACK OF THE CAR FOR SPACE!

I've seen it posted that the S380/S480 (like I have) and the S91 are the same dimensions. My turbo is about the same physical size as your PT88.

Congrats.

Is your setup still a T4 flange? S91 is T6 and it's bigger than our ST80/SX80 that we run. You'll need to look at the Turbonetics 91 that's coming out.

Honestly though, if you're running less than 20psi on the PT88, you haven't pushed it enough to go shopping yet. Turn **** to the right and go again.

Hahahah yea that is a good point!! We want to see what the current setup can do... But if you see Josh's point below we have talked about whats "next" already! Your point is good though and I was looking for easy wins for easy upgrades (cheaper) not new turbos yet... (I get distracted easy)

We will push this setup to 9 flat I think... then I may unleash Josh on taking the 88 out and replacing it with two 67's!

I'll look and see, but the S91 is the same size as a S400/GT42 T6 version.

Size is here...

Chris... My 88 is a T4 flange. If / when we pull the current setup I think I am going to let Josh cut the T-Top well to open up some space to put some sick twins or a big single there... clean up some of the piping, etc. I do agree that we will race this thing till we cant get any more out of the setup (we are checking backpressure next) then and only then will we put her under the knife again (maybe at the end of the season).

DrTurbo... Is there billit wheels for the PT88? What about a larger exhaust housing if we find Back-pressure is too much?

Im betting theres alot left in that car, even at that weight. I see some low nines, an 8 depending on the 60. I was going consistent 6.3's @ 105ish through the 1/8th with a 1.4'60 on my old nitrous setup. I dont know your '60 foot but if you are hitting higher than that I see some wicked passes coming soon.

Good luck guys.

I think you are right... we were getting 1.55 60' on DR's but if we turned up the 2-step any further it would blow right through the tires. Gonna try so actual sticky tires this next go around.
