That is a crazy MPH for that little turbo!

I am building a '69 Chevelle with the same turbo and alum 5.3 motor, A/W intercooler, e85, T56 Magnum, 9" with 3.25 gears. If I can get it to trap 145mph+ I'll be super happy. Not sure what the weight will be yet.

this turbo is instant spool, i turned my gate pressure all the way down to 2psi and it still hits 20lbs boost as soon as the pedal hits the floor. i was having to half throttle through the 330ft to keep it glued cause it hits so hard. (my slicks are gettin a little worn out)
