You will NEVER get that much power out of that amount of boost...

Actually you would with that oversized turbo but there would be absoluetely NO torque what so ever.

At 7lbs that turbo does 165whp and 135lbs of torque were as a proper sized t28 will put you in the 145whp, 150lbs torque......on an xB

And where would this turbo be mounted? You can barely stuff the T20 back there. I dont think that T3 would fit between the motor and the firewall. It would have to sit up on top and then the hood wont close.

It depends if yuu like show or go . Personaly i like the go but if you don't plan on racing light to light and just want to look the part then spend the cash on rims and other bling bling.
