It would make a good primary in a COMPOUND set up, but as a single it is pretty much useless. You would need TONS of fuel and RPM's to make it do much of anything.

Depends on what you're using it for. As a daily driver and functional truck, it will suck. For a purpose built comp rig, not so bad. Put a small housing on it, with an external wastegate, and if its a drag truck, spray it with some NO2 and you should be happy.
