Icon2 Info on turbo size

Hey guys I am currently building a 84.5mm darton sleeved ls vtec with a Gsr head. I have a new masterpower turbo but I'm not sure what kind of power it is capable of or if it will be a good choice to use..

Here's the info on the turbo: MasterPower pn 802100-063

Well its states right there the turbo is good for 300-350hp. the only difference between the three is the size of the turbine housing. Other than that they are all the same trim wheels. You should research a turbo before buying it to make sure you get the right turbo for the application. Thats alot of motor for that turbo, it will max out very quickly

I purchased all the parts from a friend as a package. I was just curious of how this turbo will respond and hp range. I have plans to buy a gt30r-35r turbo in the near future

I don't see how masterpower rates a turbo when they don't know what engine it's going on. I'm sure a ls1 would make way more hp than rated using that turbo.

this turbo is capable of around 350hp so I dont think it's worth to use on your setup.

Would it be a bad idea to use the skunk2 pro1 cams with this turbo or should I just wait till I get the bigger turbo? I can use the older skunk2 turbo 1 cams if need be.

Because it doesn't matter. The turbo can only flow so much CFM of air. The difference in engine iswhere it would reach that level of airflow.

That's what I was thinking.. Just didn't want to go by an assumption.
