If it really is a 60mm turbine, it'll light fast, and choke fast. Probably run into surge issues as well. Need a bigger turbine wheel IMO.

Or a 71, or a 73. Lots of options.

hope it doesn't mysteriously explode when you dyno because you have way too much fuel for it.

Ditto on that. That turbo would barely hold 350 hp without hitting 1500°F. With your mods I would be surprised if it lives more than a day.

I hope its not one of those chinese turbos. The coin you save now can cost you a complete motor rebuild and I'll be honest, they are not cheap. You can get a nice used holset for 7-800.

71 turbine is awesome.

Its not a cheap company, Turbo Auto Diesel is the name. Not chinese junk, genuine Borg parts.
