You know .. I thought a .68 would be too small also... Im sure the backpressure is a lil high on the high end.. but its barely ever there... its a street car... Like I said.. turbo ss ls1 is running a .81 on his 76... Its just better for the street... I would try .81 .. I guess if your looking for 3k and up .96 would be you best bet.. i start at 2400k..
... Ive read good things about divided housings if your looking to play around

i had over 9 lbs by 3300 and it pulled to 6000, but it was running out of breath fast. On 15lbs it heated the crap out of the intercooler. And that was with a .96 hot side, on a 8.2:1 forged 370, with stock LS1 heads
it blew an intercooler pipe off at the 1000' mark and i hit the brakes not knowing what the sound was and ran the 11.2 @ 106 in my sig. (on 15lbs)

ya it was a custom single front mount manifold kit. And as for it being to small it just depends on what you want to do with it. It was an awsome turbo for 500hp, but thats not what im after. Its in the shop now getting the PT88 and TH400 installed, so hopefully this year will hold single digits

I think its best sized for a stock cubed engine. Theres someone who made 598rwhp with it by 5400rpms on cz28.com. My engine is only a 355 and im only looking to spin it to 6,000rpms max.
