I disagree as well. These turbos r stout. I'm at 12lbs and boost tapers off to 11.8 lowest. With an upgraded fuel system these turbos could go for way more than the stock block could every handle.

Some of you are looking into this to far. If your building a motor then some of these questions are on par. But I doubt you are. You can only do so much on a stock block. But it will run a lot more efficient. And by this kit when your ready for the monster to be released it will be there on a build motor.

The bottom line, is that this kit can support some seriously big power should you want to go for it. |

With all they have learned almost getting multiple kits certified, I figured this would be a slam dunk.

Hmm. This is awesome, however my wallet and my wife hates you guys. I hope you have a spare room in the shop because I'll probably need it for even bringing this idea up to my wife lol.

Curious why the GTX2860R is not an option. Same exterior as the 2860, but new GTX interior.
Also, trying to figure out if the GTX2867 will really do anything for a stock block build. So many choices!!! Edit: adding compressor maps. Looks like at stock block boost levels, the GTX 2867R may not really be an efficiency gain compared to the 2860RS. But certainly has way more room to go compared to the RS: Here is another interesting option: GTX2863R: And here is turbine comparison, looks like GTX2863R is more efficient down low than the 2860RS:

Well it is GTM if it isn't in one of the twenty two packages just call and see what they can do
Edit: and yeah most of the t25 plus turbos are going to be huge, two 300 hp turbos is as much as the stock block should push, but running bigger turbos may work out better for traction, you know give the tires some time to catch up, and then down the road refresh the motor with new pistons rods and studs and turn up the boost controller.
