I'm definitely hoping for some fast spool since this is a street truck and my daily driver most days. Max hp isn't a big deal to me right now, probably going to be transmission limited anyway with the 4l60e at 185k miles

I do wonder if the compressor can be upgraded later on though in case I want to shoot for 600-700hp, any idea on that?

Some of the Cummins guys who have that turbo stock often upgrade the compressor to a make a T3/T4 hybrid. Its good for maybe 100hp more, but definitely not in the 600 range.
