Re: pics of the Turbo Beast Yep Turbotech T-76 single
Running 5psi @ 93-94 octane
only through down 385 rwhp & 420 rwt on a mustang dyno.
Need to get Atap and race gas in it, and up the boost.

Re: pics of the Turbo Beast you can run more boost than that on the stock motor, i say 8 ish or 500 rear wheel hp, whichever comes first. just make sure you have the fuel and the tune behind it.

Re: pics of the Turbo Beast I dont know how much relevance this is but when I was purchasing my turbo, which is a T88, from Precision Turbo I learned some valuable info about the T76. It is most likely a turbonetics turbo that comes with your kit which is why I dont know how much this compares. The guys at Precision said that to make a 76 shine, you have to really lean on it. At the time, I didnt have an aftermarket block and was worried that I was going to have to stay off my turbo to keep the block alive. i bought a Dart block for my project after that fact but those guys said that a T88 that wasnt flowing to potential could still support a lot of power whereas a T76 at the same level would not flow very well.
Just some food for thought.
Good luck! Do you take your car out to Muncie or Tri State or Edgewater ever? I see your from Greenville and that isnt too far from me.

Re: pics of the Turbo Beast Some of us are going on the 5th of June. I wont have my car out. Im still putting it together.
Look for a greenish/blue LT1 camaro with a roll cage and 5 star TA rims. That is my friend's car. We will also be hanging around with a dude in a black LS1 TA with torque thrust II rims on it.
