The simple answer is our kit out of the box makes a REAL 500 to 520 rwhp on an auto trans car at just 5psi
The manual trans cars are usually up 50 to 60 hp. at the same boost level
The reason Granatelli Sales never discussed the A/R was at my request. I told him to have any potential customers call us and we would help them out. Perhaps it got lot in translation. But as you can see even the simplest question gets blown out of proportion. Our kit by design has what I would say is No Lag. Meaning it goes into boost as low as 1900 and has full boost as dictated by the waiste gate by 2700.
To me Chris at CBR hit the nail on the head - In regards to the A/R questions/comments. We can win by answering the question. If we say the A/R is .82 then we get comments like oh that too small and the turbo will have too much back pressure and if I said it was .98 then we get "thats too big and it will have lag".
We put the time into the kit to make it right. To say it is simply a TTI kit is not true. George of TTi and I are partners in many kits projects and business. Why be jealous that I surround myself with quality partners, people and friends

^^^^ why wont the 6766 fit?? or 6765( if PTE still has them)
the 5862,6262,6266,6466,6766 all use the same size bearing housing.
just need to weld the elbows on a s cover for a 67 compressor cover??
just curious on "why" they wont fit.

Factually a PTE6766 is larger in frame size than the 6265 we supply in our kits. Our kits have made upwards of 1250hp
When we designed the kit it was intended for mild to wild street cars - Not 1300hp plus craziest
I am all for going fast but that was not our target. If you want over 1250 send us the car and we will hook you up with something more custom
We use a "B" not an "S" cover
The B is the smallest compressor cover they make. The S is bigger period. We think it is possible to put a larger compressor in there, but it would change too much to be a simple thing like you're making it out to be. The inlet piping would have to be changed as well as the outlet piping.
Inlet differences 2.8 vs. 4.0
Outlet 2.0 vs. 2.5
Overall housing diameter about ˝”
It throws all the pipes off…
So I guess anything can be done - send us your car and give us 4 weeks - We'll make it work
Please let us know

2 x PTE6265 Turbochargers with 4” Inlet Compressor ducting – Each capable of 65 lbs/min
^^ says that in your first post?? so........... confused
are you using 4" tubing and then dropping down to 2.8 turbo inlet??
but yes the b and s are different sized. i assumed you were using the s cover due to the statement above.
the smallest cover they make for the 6766 is the E. so yes the 6766 wont just drop in. but minus cover how is it different size.
please not trying to be a dick. just trying to learn.
