I think for the motor hes putting in, his power goals are a little low. Notice he doesn't talk about turbo size, just boost pressure. Is that a MP T78? Needs bigger...

see the thing about us who actually have/had high horsepower rotaries we tend to start giving up on how much power we can make and start to worry about safe boost levels.

Anyone can bridgeport and slap a turbo larger than a gt40 and create well over 450 whp with all supporting mods but at what boost levels.....20+lbs

do you now how sweet would 500 whp at 14-18lbs of bost will be. SAFELY

Well I wanted to make a small goal first, accomplish it...then set a larger goal.

I have no doubt this set up is capable of near 700rwhp. Keep in mind this is a street car.

BTW the compressor wheel measures in at 68mm. I do not plan on keeping this turbo forever.

I will probably not set record breaking levels. As this engine will be pulled by the end of the year for upgrades. Then I would be able to push the envelope but, this is all fun and games.
