I am glad you posted this, I had my truck tuned a few weeks back and put made 548.8rwhp @ 9 psi, I thought I was way off, my set up is a forged stock bore stock stroke 6.0L with 700r4 and a 10 bolt, the boost was falling off above nine pounds and we have determined my little turbos are too small even for my rear mount application! I set out to reach 16-18 psi!

Got to the track today. Still running 9 psi, and around 576whp. During the day our best run was 10.5 We could of gone home happy. Finally got the car to 60ft the way it should, and the car ended up going 9.87 @ 134 mph with a 1.37 60 ft..

We did not expect to break into the 9's at all. We are so pumped, and cant wait to see what we got left in it.

Just curious why didnt you go with something bigger than 76mm?
