Default someone, school me, on turbo sizing !!!!

ok... as most of you know, i have somewhat, high expectations from my current build up.

my setup can be seen in my sig. its not much.

now onto the question.

i have a Turbonetics "p trim" T66( ball bearing) i recently swaped the exhuast housing to a .81 housing(precision non divided) from a .58 divided housing... my compressor housing is a .55 anyone want to show me whats up with this? should i be running a bigger compressor housing ? im trying to hit 750hp to the wheels on gas(race gas)

Don't you think that turbo is kind of small for 750whp on gas? Also that's a crazy #...wont be very reliable.

You need to lookup the theoretical airflow numbers and then you can find the potential horsepower.

ya, i think the turbo is very small for my expectations. i just dont know where to start...

any recomendations for a "baseline" or should i just say f- it, and see what it does with the current turbo.???

also.. 750, would be the high end of the spectrum, id be happy with 600-650.

Leave whats on there...you still have potential for 600whp.
