You could make over 450whp on a Dynojet with that turbo but they only rate it at 450hp flywheel, while you will never hit 580whp with the 60-trim. John LaCriox made a lot of power with a 60-trim, but I think he had a T3 .82 A/R version. It is hard to make power with the small Mitsu exhaust housings.
Yup, .82 a/r, shitty ic setup. 519fwhp, S-afc, 532fwhp EMS.
That was on as much boost as the turbo would make though .
