Yeah i had a feeling...
I was looking into 1000rwhp with a 4000 stall and some good tires!
I was hoping that might get me there and if it didnt i would be happy with where it got me and if i am not i just might build the engine stronger and spray (nitrous) as soon as i get pasted the 60'.
There is just sooooo many variables to play around with it makes it hard.

I would personally run an S480 with the 1.32 T6 housing

If you want a better mix, then step up to the SX80 with a race cover, as it will still be a T4 and have a better mix of spool and top end. The S88 will flat out get stupid at 25lbs.....your looking at more then 1100rwhp....S91, well that will be warp speed.

We build those as well, but unmodded BW's don't spool as nicely, but still are decent units. Just don't spin them real hard un-modded....they will come apart. But on a V8 app, the shaft speed is not an issue yet.

Alright thank you for all the info and opinions.
I need to rethink about this turbo set up; get some goals with a more appropriate turbo and turn thoes goals into a plan!
