My big goal for it is a safe 600-650 rear wheel...

Big thanks to Rick at Trick Performance who got me set up with all my hot and cold side piping that I bought today for the build. If you ever have to do a turbo setup Rick is for sure the guy to call... Very knowledgeable about what he makes and sales....

Well Rick at trick performance said he hopes to ship me the intercooler and the hot and cold side piping next week, then its like two weeks and I should have the turbo and waste gate and bov, so I would say after putting it all together maybe three weeks or so......

I would say in the 650 range the wheel will become the wall.
Easy fix.
How much boost would this wheel be good up for and think ima run to this wall as well with my gtk1000 just curious what you meant by easy fix cant change the wheel right?

So are you going with his new cast iron log manifold? I have been waiting for someone to post up using it.

Buying another turbo like 76/75 or 74/75.
Take one off out one back.

Not so much a boost setting its more on the back pressure from the smaller exhaust wheel.
