A question about the turbo, most estimates I have seen put the 2871R's output at 350-385hp. You guys are running it at 400+, are they underrated, and wouldn't pushing them towards the upper limits of thier output be hard on the turbine?

depends on the setup of the motor

we are only running 20psi which is in the efficancy range of the turbo

but with properly matched cams and having two great tuners...that is how the power is made
