    Decided to take the plunge. The seal went out on my Vortech, necessitating a rebuild by the factory. As I had planned on upgrading to a turbo next year anyway--just decided to go ahead and do it now!
    The project vehicle is my '93 coupe--already has a DSS-assembled 331 ci "Power Adder Longblock" (r-block, 4340 Eagle crank/rods, 9:1 Venolia forged pistons, mildly ported Canfield heads, AFM B-41 cam, etc), new Art Carr Comp roller C4 with brake, 9" 3800 stall billet cover converter, 3.73 rear, 31 spline axles, MM anti-roll bar, D&D tubular front suspension with coilovers, 8 pt cage, 6 pt harnesses, Recaro seats, etc... Car will be limited street driven, will run FFW True Street at a couple of events... and will be full weight with A/C, ps, etc. Gotta be fast and pleasant :D .
    Question is, which single turbo setup (heavily leaning towards PTK) is best for a street/strip terror? My mechanic recommends a T-67S with an adj boost controller (not sure which one) on the PTK street kit... Ideas?

    How much?

    Minimum 550 rwhp on a safe street tune with unleaded premium pump gas and 600-650 (more?) rwhp on a more aggressive tune/race gas... Am I asking for too much?

    Oh... I do have 50 lb injectors and a 17105 Aeromotive fuel system (A-1000 pump, sumped tank, braided lines, billet rails) and billet pump controller.
