To clear some things up when comparing turbine wheels, some companies give specs for the inducer and others spec the exducer. Precision gives specs for the exducer (smaller end) and Borg Warner specs the inducer (bigger). 7675 turbine = 75mm exducer 83mm inducer. Make sure you're comparing apples to apples when looking around. 7675 is basically the same thing as a s475 with a T4 83mm turbine except being much more compact and having a more efficient comp wheel.

I still think the Borg S482 T6 96mm turbine side 1.32 ar will work wonderfully even on a built 6.0. I'd say the Borg S480 T4 87mm or 92mm turbine 1.10 ar will work great on a stock 6.0 and still be good for at least 900rwhp especially on E85.
There is a guy on the boards from KY that just had Bluecat tune his car on E85. he has a S480 or S482 on E85 and on 17-18psi (IIRC) it made over 850rwhp on a stock bottom end 6.0.
Work turbo's is having a sale on most their borg stuff right now and IIRC the S480 96/88 turbine 1.32 ar is 1075 and the S482 96/88 1.32 ar is 1500 like you said.

This is true, and Borg does mainly spec theirs with the inducer size.

14psi and 93 octane on the old 5.7L motor, don't know what it will make on this new 6.0L but I imagine at least 50 more hp and tq throughout the rpm range. only thing with E85 is larger injectors & fuel supply

On E85 you may want to look at much larger stuff, 116-120lb injectors for the next motor. Not sure but dual walbros may be enough. I've seen over 800 on E85 with dual pumps on a stingy mustang dyno.

I am probably not the guy to talk about the borg turbos....hopefully Dr. Turbo will step in! I am thinking it goes like this(even though i will prob be corrected), With the Borg turbos you have series numbers. I bet its for the frame size. Lets say a s400sx-80 is the same frame or "series" as a s400sx-75. The only difference is the size hence the 80mm and a 75mm. Since it is a 400 series turbo you can call it a s480 or a s475. They have a ton others too...s482(im guessing a 82mm) s476 etc. They also have the 500 and a 300 series. Like I said, I think thats the frame size. Someone can correct me if I am wrong please

I think you will be very happy with the turbo you chose.
If you want E85 and you don't want to do things twice get at least 120lb. injectors now, and run a triple walboro 255 pump set-up like mighty mouse did on his car. Now MM run's 96lb. injectors and gasoline instead of corn, but it is good for over 1300rwhp in his car, roughly 33% of that is 875-900rwhp. With the 120's over the 96's you should be able to make 100rwhp more, as his 96's are maxed completely out right now at 1300rwhp.
