Look up 5kj8073, 515hp truck engine, has a JWAC.
Now we're comparing apples and oranges. That 587hp engine will have a different turbo than the truck engine. Keep in mind that gen. engine only ever runs at 1800rpm. It's a lot easier to size a turbo/housings that keeps cool that way. Besides that, "high hp" is a relative term and we're obviously far apart on this one. Depending on what HP it started out as, I've already taken one up to 525hp without a problem. I made the mistake of assuming the op would compare the power to the more common turned up 4mg's that really lay it down. I also didn't want to sound cocky about it; I'm just pissed off because I've been working in rain and snow in a stank mulch field all week!
