What sort of power should this spec see??
Brand new maram shafted t38.63
L8 ecu
Air injectors
83lb injectors
3 bar
ST Escos inlet
Also I'd like to use a cam bit unsure of what spec cam to use...
Please cast your views and knowledge.

Don't know fully yet jim.. It isn't built as yet as I havnt sent the maram shaft to CR yet.... What would you recommend jim lad?
I'd recommend if your having a cr t38 to not be looking at figures of 460 as people say.
With a ported head, (ours are nick waples) a inlet cam and a cr t38 at 26/7 psi the engine will show 450bhp on our dyno.
These turbos don't like big boost so aim to make the power around the boost pressure I just said above!
If you are not porting the head don't expect big power, 430 would be realistic IMO! And with standard cams that will make peak power around 6-6500 rpm
A inlet cam and some head work makes this spec engine so much more revvy, happily to 7500.
I think you should ask yourself what power you actually want/need then go from there
If your wanting 460-470 for example dont bother with that turbo. Tests my honest opinion mat

Boys you know I can't talk business on here 
I'll be joining chip lol!
Mat, have a look at r5ford t38 in the for sale section
Its one of our spec ball bearing turbos and is cheap, could be worth buying and selling your bits on, his made 450
You could use standard head and cams and piss 400 but it wouldn't be revvy, a inlet cam and a slight clean up of the ports would be so much sweeter mate and see 439-450 at sensible boost levels
