Default Upgrading to a PT7675, what AR should I get

Hi all, figure I'd ask to get peoples opinions on which AR would be ideal for my setup. .96 or 1.15

Currently have
LS1 346ci forged from speed inc
KYTP Front Mount Header single turbo kit
TC78 .96AR
TU1 Cam
95lb injectors
317 heads
9.5:1 CR
e85
Tial BOV and WG 44mm

Right now i am making about 700whp at 17.5 psi but have alot of power loss up top. My suspicious have been narrowed down to the 68mm turbine wheel and maybe the .96 AR housing. I'd like to make power to redline and push maybe 20psi.

Bonus question, right now I have a 10lb spring (Big Red) in the WG and control boost with an AEM Truboost controller. If I want to push a little more boost up top would I be better off sticking a 13lb spring (Big Blue) in the WG? Right now I'm at a point where adding DC to the controller isn't getting me any more boost pressure, but it might be primarily due to the turbine wheel hitting back pressure.

Thoughts?


Thanks
-Will

You know what, I think you're right. They only go up to a .96 AR. The gt42 style has larger ar's and I think I was thinking of pt88's or something. Hues it's .96 for me.
