The only reason people shoot it down is because it isn't a big name turbo

I figured the same and looked at it two ways. The people who were running them on 6.0 without complaints of running out of steam above 6000 rpm couldnt be wrong or they would have said so. Or if it wasnt enough its a cheap enough turbo i would just add a 2nd and do twins.
