It doesn't look too bad does it.
 I would add LS1's to that list as well...........

Nah, I'm pretty sure it'll spool as soon as the stock turbo.
I think the pic makes it look bigger than it is... The part you are looking at is actually sitting about 5 or 6" away from the wheel.

Maybe this is a better representation of size.
I wish I still had the spare K26 to sit next to it though.

LEAVING any and all stock turbos WAYYYYY behind.... You should see what it does at +20psi..... (shivers)..... but if I were Uni-ball I would stay at 15 psi....

I'm probably going to run it at 12psi or so until I do the rebuild.
Afterwards, I'm going to aim for lots of boost, but with water injection. I guess I'm going to see what other goodies I can accumulate for next winter's project.

Pretty sure a nicely built LS-1 would leave it behind
However, that is very nice. Much bigger than my K26/6

all things being equal, it should be equivalent to a 5.0L once it reaches 14PSI.
