Default mpt70 and LQ4?

will a mpt70 be to small for a stock lq4 not lookin for max HPs just where every 5psi puts it. just for fun wont go over stock RPM my main deal is the back pressure? maybe 450ish hp but really doesnt matter this is only for fun tryin to do it on a shoe string budget.

That is a good turbo for 5 psi. You will not have problems with back pressure till you really turn up the psi.

Default .96 a/r

An MPT70 will get you to 500rwhp, but you should target a larger A/R, for a 450-500 rwhp target I would suggest 0.96. However, a larger turbo MPT76 will also get you there and leave more room for growth in the future. If you are sure you want to hit a 500rwhp max target, the MPT70 0.96A/R would work well.

600 is possible if you forge up and push the boost.
