You'll have to tell us the specs on this obscure turbo and of course find a manifold for it...

a general rule if everything is tuned correctly is around 10crank hp per psi...
could be more, could be less, but this is as close as we can tell you until you dyno yourself...

But boost is funner since you can use it all the time & turbos can actually be cheaper to put together then buying a nos kit.
