bigger turbo than PT88?

Is there a bigger turbo that will fit in the engine compartment of these cars? if so does a 383 put out enough exhaust to turn it? This will be drag only.

haha. I've messed with the idea but I'm not sure how big I can go with these cubes and the space in the engine bay. I would like to go a little bigger but I need to figure out how big I can actually go.

s488 will work fine, its a 88mm t6 turbo, not sure if it has much advantage over a PT88 though. A garrett gt47-88 will also fit. You can fit basically any t6 turbo, just have to get a little creative

I'm jealous now lol. Do you have any more pics of that build. I would like to just take a look at that. It's a nice setup. I think I'll stick to by pt88 though.

The PT4788 is GT4788 guts crammed into a PT88 housing. It'll support more power than the PT88 and is supposed to be the baddest mid frame T4 turbo available.

So kind of power will this put out on a 383? What rpm do you think this turbo will spool at with 383?
