Not bad, i think that is somewhere close to what we worked out on the Moroso calculator. Is that with a full exhaust and intake filter or the open system on avgas?

testing time see if we can get a T70 to spool a little earlier without loosing to much HP up top
thanks to matt_vp i have a 0.63 housing but it doesnt fit as my turbine wheel is too big enough so off to the man with a lathe this week to make it fit its also single entry so may flow even better since the manifold is a single outlet LOL

just got back from the drags what a weekend we had this time.get to track and its looking like rain and slippery as all hell and there was over 70 cars lined up for street class "C8" so we decided to harrass the jappas in 2 wheel drive turbo "C22" heads up racing no handicap first practice the VB went 11.8@115 guess the new drag tyres are grippy LOL.ran 2-3 passes all 11.8 and lower mph than normal so i guess the T350 and convertor does waste a little power.that was the first day racing over and we went and got drunk and watched the burnouts.
first run today nice and hot and sunny to qualify 11.7@114mph our normal old time just lower mph least we arnt slower go the auto we are TOP QUALIFYIER.ran all day doing 11.7-11.8 then we though bugger it turn the boost up to compensate next run 17psi untuned on 14psi fueling and spark 11.5 woot owner reckons it gained 40hp it was a big jump.time to pack up and go home as class winner
our mates V8 mini that ive been messing with tuning the chassis and spark curve ran a new PB that we knew was in it but have been waiting for an event at sealevel to run it. now in the 9second club after running 9.91 first pass in the 9's and a very happy owner should be the fastest mini in the southern hemisphere ide say LOL and is newzealands shortest wheelbase drag car.
also another mates DX corolla wagon with worked N/A V6 that ive tuned also got its personal best 13.3@103mph after a few tune tweaks 1 tune gained us 0.4 seconds
all in all a great weekend
