Mike that's awesome! You are the only one I know of using the GT2871 turbos on our car. I didn't realize they had that much in them and would have thought they would be undersized for the 3.8, but those #s prove me wrong. What A/R turbine housing?

I would be careful of any numbers that come from a tuner's car. They can push the envelop further than you and I would dare. It is a great achievement; however, I would only accept those numbers if the are consistent across the board.

Well, YOU of course. Didn't your parents tell you?

My bad, Jag. Sorry. I mistakenly picked it out from the post you quoted above mine.

Do you know if they have .63 A/R turbine housings or .82?

I thought Chris was referring to Mike's car. I know your car is not a tuner's car, which makes your numbers even more remarkable.... sorry about the misunderstanding.
Have a boosted day
