What kind of numbers can I expect on 20#

I highlighted the only things that are really going to make any kind of difference.

You never mentioned whether the converter is locked or unlocked. That will make a huge difference in dyno numbers.

I'm going to say somewhere around 780 HP with the converter locked and a very conservative tune.

4l80 might soak up a little power
I'd guess 740-750

It doesn't soak up as much as most people think. He might lose 20 HP with it vs a 4L60e.

It'll dyno higher than a TH350/400/PG with the converter locked.

Just going by similar setups I've seen
Through a 60 mine made 730 at just a little less boost

We have fairly similar setups engine wise, I'm using two cheap turbos, he's using one nice one. Figured his would dyno a little higher with 2 more psi, but would lose just a bit more drivetrain wise.

Post up a graph when you have it done, don't see that many people use those turbos, be nice to see how it compares to something similar in size
