408 turbo guys in here im currenty knees deep in a full build from motor to suspension and everywhere in between... I wanna get some input and discussion goin on with guys doin a turbo setup on a 408... What turbo... Boost... Trans.... Rear gear... Fuel... So on and so forth... Maybe even get some track numbers would be cool to see... Let the party begin lol
No number yet for me... still putting everything back together. But im going with 408, GT91 T6 turbo, 4L80e from Jakes, most likely a 3.25 rear gear, and fuel is going to be E-85. Still need to talk to some of the sponsors on an adequate fuel system for E85 (most likely FIC 2000cc's and a large pump), but i wanna run 15-18lbs on the street and 20+ at the track.

Boost is restriction, your looking for a certain CFM. Use that to match the Turbo you need.
GT91 Turbo from Jose at Forced Inductions, 1.08 A/R.
You will DEFIANTLY want to run Methanol, since you're not running E85.
