Draw Through Turbo project for my 2.9 Stroker L series

[A to Z]

My welder also does powder coating, so I am having him powder coat the J pipe and down pipe with some graphite black colored hi temp powder. Supposedly good for 1800 degrees F. Also....G POP , who is doing the carbon seals on my turbo is going to hi temp powder coat my hot side with some 2000 degree F Titanium color powder coating, and then the compressor side is being Powder coated gold. You will see, it will all come together. also mulling over having the turbo ported and maybe a custom turbine for the hot side to spool the turbo quicker since I like my 5500-6000 RPM redline. We go forward!

When I was running a small turbo on a big stroker, I was basically making boost right off idle and 10-15psi by like 3000 rpms. If I read correctly, you're only going for 1-3psi of boost? You will easily be making that off idle, certainly below 4000 rpms.

Yeah....I have started to realize the same thing.  I will let it make what it makes and provide the fuel, methanol and water it needs.  the knock sensor will save it.  If it wants to spool immediately, that would be exactly what I want.  I don't go over 6K RPM anyway.  I am going to talk to the turbo builder and see what he has for custom wheels....apparently more vanes brings earlier spool.
