Interesting you say this, as a friends 5.3/tc78 car just ran the same times as I did with my t76, I was on 7lbs, stock heads/cam, he was on 8lbs gt2-3 cam, stock heads, makes me wonder now. 
He is lighter with slightly smaller stall, more boost, bigger turbo, his 26" mt dr vs my 28" narrow et street, him on 16 degrees timing, myself on 14 degrees.

But from what Im seeing once you add boost, the playing field is even'd. I go back and forth on what to do with my next car. Lt1... ls1... Boost... Nitrous... Cant really decide.
Car wasn't that "nice". Just ran good. I really really wanted a new car and
was kind of burnt out on working on the same ole polished turd. Sad thing is from the car I ended up with a R1 and a 95 Chevy truck (that got STOLEN. damnit) and never got another car.
No Idea. Wasn't anything special. Just a griffin the right dimensions. Griffin is really reasonable with prices and will build you whatever you need with any kind of bungs where you need them
