Same stock manifold, same .64 exhaust side, but now with an MVS 38mm gate.

I don't think it would be wide enough either. The ATP housings have more meat and are cast differently in that area to accept the flange part. While it may not be impossible, I just don't know if I'd attept as that flapper wheel and area is all very close.

Trust me when I say, I hope it works too. Trust me when I say if this doesn't work as well as I'm hoping that I'll be seeing how accurate I am with an M16 again...been almost a year since getting out, I hope I still have it

Do you think 400whp is achievable on a pump gas and a 63 with proper supporting mods? Off the top of my head I believe the flow rates are 43/45/47 lbs/min for the 63/71/67 respectively so it's all very close.

While capable of 43 lb/min, when you look at the compressor map you'll see that it is not very efficient at the top end, or with a lot of boost...so I'd rate it very similar to the old trusty 28RS...but with a little quicker response and a tad more top end. If you're looking for anything over 350ish whp I'd still say 2871 or GTX2867 as both support the top end ability, more boost, and can safely flow the air needed to make 400+. The nice thing about the GTX2867 is that it allows more headroom for boost (and power)...not that I need more but how cool would a 425-450 (again, just in theory) car be that has full spool before 4000 rpm? I'd have a hard time going V8 with such an option IMO (and I love V8's)
