I'm going to have to check that out as I came up with my turbo thoughts on my own (a nite of killing too many brain cells drinking beer I think). I have a program that I used that allowed me to try different combinations of parts and found using a Mitsu turbo unit (small turbo) and a larger unit from a Power Stroke should get me to the 1,000hp range when both are spooled thanks to line locks and trans lock. The best part is, I'm also looking at 23-25 mpg from it on the highway thanks in part to the specially built 700R4, the 3.55:1 axle and 31x21.5-R15 Pro Street Radials.

I look forward to seeing what other have done turbo wise on an otherwise non-turbo application.
