The turbo will love it. Plus I use to lauch at 8-10psi on the old 6.0. Now it's a 408 running 15psi which is why the other trans exploded on the first hard launch. Well, I'll know in about a week.

I can tell you that the G tech registered 12.7 @ 109 at 10psi running pretty rich (low 11's A/F). Then I tried to get the tune close at 15psi for the dual ball bearing 72mm turbo to be installed and popped the output shaft. My race weight is 6000lbs also. I am very happy with the new engine on the same boost as the 6.0. I will update you in a few weeks once everything is tuned again.
