Yeah that's the same wheel he wants to put on,mine, it's the 11 full clipper blade wheel, the guy at forced inductions had part in the design of that wheel and is a huge fan of it. There's also a 6 blade billet wheel witch has no gain in power but does spool just a hair faster, I hear it's much louder witch id kind of like, I enjoy hearing the turbo wined up.

From what I've gathered, the fewer blades, the louder it is.

I talked to guy at forced inductions again, he told me they had dyno'd a 4.8 like mine with the s475 83mm wheel 1.00ar, said they were making 770 rwhp and were already starting to see the ex pressures rise, he was thinking 1.10 at 800rw would be perfect. So I've decided to go with s475 11 blade billet wheel stock cover, t4 83mm 1.10 ar. I'll be placing the order Monday.

I like the guys at Forced Inductions. Seemed like straight shooters and didn't try to sell me stuff I didn't necessarily need.

Yeah he's real cool, knocked 100 bucks off my turbo sence it was the second we have ordered from him. Also got me the slip on cover instead of vband for no charge.

Sounds like it's my turbo but with the standard housing. I think you'll be very happy with it man. I'd like to see some close-ups of the the compressor wheel to compare it with mine from Boost Lab.

You should ask more details on the 770HP 4.8 setup, who's and what vehicle it's in. Sounds strong.

Will do, I'll ask when I place my order, and I'll pull the cover off and take a few pics when I get it.

I bought me an s475 with the 92mm exh, 1.10 A/R T4 for my 6.0 from Forced Inductions, great guy to talk to! I'm really excited to try it out!! I'll post up pictures of it next to my Turbonetics TC76/68 when I get it

Ok I talked to him again, he said the 4.8 had mild head work and a mild cam and was running the billet wheel s475 with a 1.10 housing, said this was the 4th 4.8 they had done this year that made right around that 800rwhp mark, he said back pressure was running right at 1.5-1 and peaked at 1.75-1, I completely forgot to ask what boost they made that at, but he did say that power was pretty ease to make on the 4.8s
