BW S376 for t4 or 476 for T6. FI says they go through these units and change the wheels and housings to make more power yet.

We can build a ton of different 76mm units. The most powerful would be the S76 with race cover or FI76 that is being worked on now, but won't be ready till Dec.

The street kit uses and on-center housing, so the 76GTQ is the biggest.

We are shooting to make around 1350-1400hp or so out of a true 76.

We have the new ones now. I think when you spoke to Jose it was about 1-2 months ago right. At that point the castings we got we crap and had probs, so we chunked them all. Now we are kicking *** and taking names with the covers.
