Figuring out Turbo For Setup Haven't played in a number of years and am slowly starting to remember everything... Wife wants to build her first car out that just sits (Gen4 trans am) so I figured I would spec a build and get moving on everything.
LQ9
Dragonslayer Crank
CP pistons (-2cc flat top)
Compstar 6.125 H beams
1/2 head studs
Trickflow 255's (69cc chamber/255 intake)
Ls3 intake
E85
Jakes 4l80
Dana S60 rear
etc.
My question here in figuring out cam/turbo/efficiency is whether or not I can get above 1krwhp on a T4 based turbo and control back pressure/use in its efficiency range (trying to keep A/C)
Thoughts, comments, recommendations, etc?

I'm sure it can be done, but 1k rwhp through a 4l80e and an s60 is going to be tough. 1k crank I think would be a more realistic goal for a t4 setup.
1k crank is still a top 99% streetcar.
