This is why I just picked up a cast 467/87/.9 from FI to replace my cast 67/83/.9.

Tried a larger exhaust housing on the 83 (1.1) and lost more than I gained all around. I'd have to look thru my notes to see how much drive pressure I lost, but it was only a couple psi iirc. Not enough to justify the added lag (I tow). I'm expecting good things with the 87, but it'll be a while until I get it on and dynoed again- with much better tuning this time around, but can probably do a pull with my old tuning to compare apples to apples.

The 472sxe really interest me but I don't need that much air. For a truck shooting for 800-900, it might just be the ticket... whatever you do, I'd def go bigger than 83 on the turbine side.
