686rwhp on 18lbs tc78 in my rx7, junkard 5.3, small cam with the stalled auto and 9 inch/33" tires. That should make 700rwhp without the big tires/9 inch robbing it, lol.

I made 640 at 11psi on a LS1 LS6 intake 227/224 cam and Billet wheel 76 GTS precision turbo. PTE says its good for 1150 on the engine dyno. I'd imagine you could make upwards of 700-800 easy with this turbo if not a little more.

My 5.3 made 665wheel @15 Psi on VP 110 with a 76mm p trim 1.15a/r the lag is not to bad. Think it might be a little much for m6 street car. I would look into doing rod bolts and better rod bearings too. As the stock ones don't really like the beating.

Keep it under 6600rpm and the rod bolts ar efine, I'm at probably amost 200rwhp more than you make with stock rod bolts and many others are doing fine on stock rod bolts also.

oh and i just read about wanting to keep in low in the rpms as well , why is that? either way if you going to keep low rpms your going to want something that spools really quick and the 70 will do a much better job at that then a large frame turbo (holset or bw)

Jerry Im selling the 70 to finish my build, what does yours spool at? I want to give myself room to grow and a budget large frame seems like the route to go, the one im looking at needs a rebuild but its an s368 or 76 with a .88 ar, also going with the brutespeed cam. And wgen i said low i meant around 6200 or so

My 366 spools early on a th400 w/3200 stall, but is a dog on my 5 speed. Nitrous fixes all that, but you need a little extra help on a 3L motor.

I agree as above: I'd run that T70 for a while

I just sold the T70 so keeping it is out of the question, need to pick out a new turbo
