PT71 GTQ .85 housing...too much turbo?

[Scott231]

Kip,

Phil acuired his CPT70Q turbo from Cotton's Performance (while we were at the BPG race in Salem). As such, I believe it is a Innovative/Turbonetics piece...with the CP-touch!

My friend went 10.40's@128mph with a TE-63, ported irons, Erson 220 flat tappet cam, 100%+DC on his 55lbers, FAST system, V1 intercooler, TH 3" DP with open dump, AC NLU, fiberglass hood/bumpers with full a/c and p/s and 8pt roll bar.

That is a big turbo to only want mid 10's. I'd say shed some weight and keep tuning.

In your opinion, what convertor would it take to spool the 70 GTQ with the .85 housing with stock ported heads and stock exhaust manifolds? Would this still be a nice street driver?

I would use a 3800 ATI converter. Billy Anderson is the guru. He can set you up in a heartbeat.
