I believe the 1000+rwhp cars require cutting of the frame to fit

Road and Track's article on the LPE TT C6 Commemorative states; a pair of Garrett GT28 ball-bering turbochargers that supply 10.0 psi of boost.

What you need to do is send the ones you have to somebody like Mike Blouch at Blouch turbo to put the -11 or -12 chra's in your housings. This will insure they will bolt back up to your system. Google "Blouch Turbo" and give him a call....he's done it before...you'r turbos max at 44lb....mike can get them to 50-52lb which will be worth 120ish hp if you max the system.

I think the GT30R turbos are ideal for the stock displacement motor.
