A Standard T4 PT88 is a .96 a/r and would work well for your setup. I've seen them make 1100 rwhp

It will spool pretty well with that stall converter.

i would think with that much converter, it will spool within a second or two at full throttle. full boost launches would not be out of the question.

A GT91, GT88, or even GT80 would also work well. That 408 with 3600 verter would spool the std T6 just fine. Id want a T6 on a 408 if it were me..

My converter is (unfortunately) around 3600 now, and with 1.10 AR T6 it spools stupid fast. And its only on a 6.0. 408 would be ridiculous.

Jarrett, do you feel like you are blowing through your converter with the 3400?

A GT91 on a 370 with a Yank 2800 converter. That going to be crappy? I don't know much about turbos at all....Sorry.

It blows thru pretty bad with the pt88 at 20psi on a 9 sec pass. The tach never drops below 6k unless I lock it. With the 76mm it's perfect. Drops to 4800-5k on a 5600 rpm shift and pulls hard. Only reason I leave it loose is so I can still spool up in Co in the 8000'+ DA. I know it's hurting me at sealevel...
