Also at 15 psi or better the 40-67 is not the best choice. You would be better off with a 42-72 (or76 if you would like to move a little more air) Or a S72, which takes a little longer to spool but will ultimatly make more power because of the better flwing wheel.

Definatly not on the large side for a 6.0l, Zippy is on the right track with that turbo, it will work very well on a mild 6.0l. Infact that would be great for a entry level up to 700rwhp or so turbo on a 6.0l.

I just bought it. It is supposed to be capable of 1200hp but on the inefficient system I will have I'd be more than happy with 700@ the flywheel. 600+ rwhp on a real world DD is enough i think
Now I just need recommendations on a boost controler, wastegate, and blowoff valve.

Yeah. The more I thought about it the radix just wasn't what I needed. It is a great system for up to just a little over stock . Other than that it just isn't the best way to go. The radix does perfect for what it was designed to do though.
It's gonna be fun
