lol i've always wanted to run mine but I dont have the funds for the new transmission that i'll probably need at the end of the track.
If I can sell the iems3 i'll have a little play money and use some to get a diablo tune. What I was thinking is doing a stroker (370 or 38x), big valve heads, turbo cam, s480 turbo and a 4l80e tranny. But thats big moola

A very fast SRT8 Jeep with a T76 turbo and A/R .96 exhaust housing running 10psi boost. Sounds familiar doesn't it.

That looks sweet. I wonder why nobody has tried going with a bigger turbo. Takes a little long to spool but if you rev out to like 65-6800 you should be fine. Plus you've got a lot less heat with the bigger turbo.
Guy with a 4.8L chevy motor spools a 1.1a/r t76 to 15psi no problem and does low 11s

I like the Probe pistons. No valve notches required to weaken the piston even with a big cam.
