Ok ok before you flame it cause it's a giant giant turbo. I have done a little bit of lookin into this. The setup is gonna be a sleeved 2.0 gsr with a b16 head. It's about 10.5:1 with a mildly pnp with crower stage 2 turbo cams and a AFI too mount mani. A buddy of mine put the same turbo on his 9:1 LS with a ram horn and it spooled at about 6000. I'm thinkin the bigger displacement, higher compression, and vtec head it may be able to spin the beast around. The goal is 500+ on 20psi or less.

Constructive criticism: for 500whp, you need a much smaller turbo for a more manageable and usable power band.

What mm inlet/outlet? We're talking about a Garrett unit and not some eBay "GT45", right?

this. No sense in wasting all that rpm and not making any usable power.
Offtopic, Heik, are you the same heikdiesel on utahhondas?
