Default Stock Turbo

Does anybody know how much hp the stock turbo will hold up to with no outrageous EGT's. Estimated to be pushing 475hp with the new injectors and smarty. Just wondering if my egts are gonna shoot through the roof and all im gonna get is just smoke and not much more power?

WIth that kind of fuel your going to see some major EGT's. And your going to lay down a cloud of smoke that will cover a 8 line interstate. I would sugget HTT, BD or Industrial Injection Turbo.

Heck i can get the fire dept. called when i hammer down! Before my turbo upgrade, i actually pulled harder off the line. So im not completely convinced bigger turbo is better. But im probably wrong and need bigger sticks.

It just take a little long to get a big turbo to spool

Dont expect a big charger to spool quickly when you're cruising down the street and lay into it. Spool up off the line with a lot of fuel and you'll get a big smile on your face.
