if it made anything like 420lbft (which it wont) the it would trash the transmission as it will hit with such force on a turbo that size. been there done that - on a t34 .55 peaking at 35psi @ 3500. planet gears in the diff and 3rd gear broke. 3.5k later they didnt break again. so hardly ideal !!

as for 38mpg - surely you dont really believe a 380hp road car will average that?!?!
you talking about 2wd or 4x4?

as for the MPG, i think you'd be surprised what closed loop can do, i know a few people who run MSD set up and get over 30mpg
