as long as you get it tuned it should be ok..thats a pretty small turbo..should run out of boost at about 7000 rpm though

so wait what are you putting it on? Type R go with the bigger turbo, air charge will be a little cooler and have a great tuner

yeah thats what i was saying, the turbo is pretty small..i had a garret 60/48 as well..and my power band would cut off just about at redline on my ls..turbo just wouldn't produce anymore
