    Go with a JGS 50mm gate. They are diaphramless

    God created turbo lag so nitrous trucks could have a chance.

    Well what is the lowest boost you plan to run. That will determine how much gate you need. I would think that one would hold down to 10psi but that is just a hunch based on other set ups that i have read about. The lower the boost with more flow (large Turbo) the more waste gate surface area you will need.

    Sorry if this has already been covered. Can someone explain to me why he needs an 88mm turbo to make only 550hp?

    he doesnt but with a 376 and future goals the 88 would make sense, however a PTE76 would work well and still make big power for him, hit hard as

    2002 Lightning - GT headed 5.5Litre w/ Twin 7665s
    2002 Silverado - 427Lsx w/ Twin gt4202s
    2010 Silverado crewcab Z71 - 5.3litre w/ procharger
    2000 Wrangler - 5.3litre with some stance
    2014 Xsport- 3.5 Eco boost

    it ain't that I'm too big to listen to the rumors, It's just that I'm too damn big to pay attention to 'em..That's the difference
