550 Rwhp Fc Look

Hello all, I'm ready to move up. Please no "search flames", I want the most up to date current info possible. I want to put 550 to the rear wheels. I am not a clueless newbie, and my current set up is dialed. I am looking for a turbo for a road race car which sometimes sees the strip. I'm thinking T66, oil and water cooled, undivided, bb, .81ar q trim. what do you think? I hope to just "bolt on" I may need a second external pump w/surge tank, we will see. Current set up makes 440 rwhp.
here is my current set up;
1988 TII
13BREW W/88 PLATES STREETPORTED
TO4S .60 COMP./.81EXH. 3.5" VBAND
CAST UNDIVIDED MANIFOLD
E6K
720/1600 INJECTORS
BOSCH PUMP(NEED TO CHECK WHICH ONE)
-6AN FUEL LINES
HKS FMIC
HKS RACING BOV
DUAL STOCK OIL COOLERS
HUGE GRIFFIN CUSTOM RADIATOR
CUSTOM 3.5" EXHAUST

crap.. how much did it cost you to get this setup you've currently got? I'd be happy with 440rwhp. I'm guessing you've got a standalone computer also?

I bought the car complete for around 30 cents on the dollar. If you include broken motors(several made 550hp before I owned it) in development it cost over 30k. I did not list, but it is important to note, that my listed mods are the tip of the iceberg. The car is absolutely reliable, the car starts and runs better than stock, and the temps do not exceed 200 at Sears Point after 25 minutes of 2:00 laps. The E6K is the haltec stand alone.

I don't know if your power goals are going to happen with a 'road race friendly' power curve...
You can easily make that kinda hp for a straight line car, but the power is going to be like a light switch...

He has a 1st gen he uses for circuit duty and im pretty sure he making hp numbers around 550rwhp with a 2rotor...

Realistically a 20b with mild street port and a properly sized turbo would be alot nicer on a road circuit than a 2rotor making the same hp levels...
