Doucher? I'm giving you an honest answer. Perfect reason why this forum is in the *******.

Good to know. When do you hope to have that turbo running on the 4.8? I'd be interested to see some driving vids.

Quit logging in then

You were being degrading with your comment earlier. I know the S475 will get it done. That has been proven. I was simply asking for input on how the S480/92 would act on a 4.8L.

Has anyone used that turbo on a 293? I wonder if it would make 900whp south of 20psi. I'm sure it would make for a sick dyno queen set up
