I ran 397/367 with a Standard overbored bottom end, ported head, GrpA H/G, T38 .63, 4X4 inlet & spacer, 70mm intercooler, wasted spark, MSD map, Grey 403's.

Same engine and tuner made over 400 but with 55 Siemens, -34 actuator, Air injector - injectors were maxed out on this setup

No bother but you'd be better going for a GT3071 with either .82 or .63 arse end

It's dependent on the actualy company who converts or makes your t38 will determine if you are goin to sacrifice a lot of torque or not.

A t34 .63 maxxed out will provide a lot of torque but will probably need rebuilding every year.

I have read that the turbo having lag would be a little nicer to my 4x4 gearbox , and if it blows the turbo think I would get a gt30 turbo , so its over kill for what I need
