BW s480

Any one running a s480 turbo? would the t-6 1.32a?r be to big for a 6.0? ported 317 240/240 @ 50 looking for 800 rwhp! thanks also are there any venders here that sell them

It will be slower to spool but will make good power on the top end. That turbo will be capable of well over 800rwhp in that configuration. Is the car stick or auto? Street or track?

how about same scenario with a 1.25 or larger T4 a/r ? So much easier to fit in the 4th gens with a t4 side on them

T4 is expensive isnt it? I had a BW s480 with the big exhaust wheel and the 1.32 a/r exhaust on a ls1. Used a spool valve to make it work with my converter.

1.25 a/r with 87mm turbine was a little laggy as a rear mount on my car with no spool valve. With a valve it's stupid fast now that it's cooled off a bit.
