eospeed,
How's that do? I think the lindsey super 65 is just a T-65, or 65mm housing.

Yes, but unless you really want to squeeze every ounce of power from a turbocharger, stick to the KKK hotside. Bolt ons, directly connects to exhaust, water and oil connections.......

it all depends on how much boost, at 15psi the #8 back pressure might be fine, but at 21psi that could be to much cfm and get backed up because of the hot side. this all depends on what size comp. you get.
