Do you know what size turbine wheel it has? It's all relative, if your trying to make 800+ than it's going to have a lot of back pressure, 650 not so much. Also on the S480 there is a few different combinations especially on turbine wheel size.

I don't want to do the jerk move of saying do a search but in this case search for the S480 lots of good info, especially on S480 and engine size matching.
