DAMN!! every time I see this thread bumped I get a semi. Then I click and see its just a "bump" bump, not a "come get it" bump.

Its like going to the strip club expecting a handski and leaving with a pair of the blues

No, it's not a MP T88... Looks like a MP45. Has a 76.5mm compressor with a .60 a/r and a 77.5mm turbine wheel with a 1.22 a/r. MP rates this turbo at 7-900 fwhp. they have been making these for quite a while. Its the same compressor wheel they based there T76's off of.

Correct KB,

Not the T88 its either the MP42 or MP45.

I highly doubt it would come out without me knowing about it....

OK so I just got off the phone with MP. They said and I quote " the T88 will be 1500+hp capable ".

I guess we will just have to keep waiting and see what its all about when it gets here.
