Default Can somebody let me know the proper A/R?

Searches are getting me nowhere as far as remote mount setups go. I am looking to build a custom remote mount intercooled setup on a forged H/C/I 346 M6 Trans am. My question is what would be the best A/R/Size turbo for this setup considering the manual trans/small cubes. I was thinking a t76 with a.96 A/R. Goal is 700+whp with propane injection once under boost. Perhaps I want to go smaller though. Please speak from experience.

If possible let me know a turbonetics part number.

Thank you.

Matt.

Why propane injection? Why not run meth injcetion? Also what gears do you have?

currently they are 410s. I am expecting to maybe drop to a 3:73.

I want as little lag as possible I just did not know how to order the turbo for what I want.

I am using a boost controlled system from a diesel truck to add more fuel. Propane is alot cheaper than meth/race fuel and it will only use a small amount at a time and rarely fill the small tank I use.

Also propane does not compression ignite meaning it will be very hard to detonate my motor under boost.

Grand National guys have been using propane for a while I am going to try it this way.

Why don't you look into buying this setup. Its already there and the hard part is done. Its cheap and bolt on and go.
