Default Question before I throw in some pro1 cams

I am already making 416hp @15psi on pump gass with my t3/t4 60trim but I have not seen very many setups making too much more than that. I believe this turbo is rated at around 470hp. Now I am planning on putting some pro1s in and to see what it makes at the 15psi but I am also planning to run race gas and turn up the boost to around 25psi. Will the turbo become a restriction when the motor is flowing that much more air through it?

the limits of the turbo will stop you from making over its advertised rating. so if it says 470 hp, you prolly won't make much more than that.

the turbo will be fine if you throw the pro1's on. but i think race gas 25psi will be overkill on the turbo. If you are planning on making big #'s and you know what numbers the turbo is rated at. why dont you just upgrade?

This turbo just keeps making power with no sign of it struggling. It is still making power at 9k thats why I thought I could push it some more since it is making what I would say above average for 15psi. I will put the cams in and tune them at the same boost and then turn it up too see what it does.
