Gt30 sounds about right for your set up

Yeah, I'd agree. Anywhere from 51lbs/min-58lbs/min could work either way for that goal. An S366 is HUGE for something that reasonable and simple.

That turbo is too big for anything less than 600. You need a much much smaller unit. A 57/60 trim t3/4 or gt30 is the right size. Pte 5431/5555/5558 works too. I think a 6262/66 is too big as well. Idk why everyone talks abt big turbos like they're necessary to make big power. I saw a guy selling his em1 using a 6262 on a b16 to make 370whp. Literally. Wft is the point of boost onset at 6500 rpm. You have a 82x89 with 9.5 cr. You need the smallest turbo to get you to 500 HP. Not one capable of 500-900 HP.

if your using this for street you will more then likely start spinning above 400whp on a
LS. spinning is not winning....

That power level listed is to the crankshaft. It's good to about 460whp or do by 21-24 psi of boost pressure with that turbo. That is about 52lbs/min
