how much power can a t78 make?

I think I have found the perfect turbo for me. The t78. I was just wondering how many of you guys are running a t78 and how much power does your car have? And if any of you are running a 20b with a t78, how much power does your car make? I also want to know much much boost is possible on this turbo too.

Oops! My Bad...

Yep, I think that Scoot used the T78 at 2 kilos boost?...something outrageously crazy. Definitely not streetable or anything lower than race fuel.

scoot used the hks T51r on their top speed RX7 (the red one with the ugly wheel covers) to hit 199mph. They made over 700rwhp with it with no nos!

Yeah, sorry should have clarified....My setup. 700hp is straight up too much....youll pry run about the same times if you only had 500hp
