    Proper Fuel line sizing

    With the bigger turbo it probably came with a HD actuator. Adjust the rod and get the boost down to 13/15 psi. Verify your fuel pressure goes 1to1 with boost.

    Proper Fuel line sizing

    Check the clamps(may have a broken one)try tightening the clamps for the hoses. You may get lucky If not the seal for the sending unit/pump could be bad or improperly installed.

    Proper Fuel line sizing

    That makes things easy and cheaper as you will have no way to make more than stock power. Boost will be limited to around 15psi depending on how much timing you throw at it. The 255 will be all you need for that. Flush your rail and lines and flow injectors if it checks out use the stock stuff...

    Head Porting

    It would be a wise choice to send your heads out to be ported. There are many porters out there that are reasonable and the irons can make alot of power on the right combo.

    External wastegate

    Comp turbo has a 45mm wastegate and a 60mm now. You can pm me if your interested but... In a nutshell I would advise to get an external and put co2 on and tie it into your computer or electronic boost controller.

    8HP swap?

    Converters respond to power period. Our platforms will not go fast or have power on tap with bigger turbos and super tight converters. These motors cant move the air at very low rpm.

    8HP swap?

    A tcc clutch is a wear item no matter what its made out of. We have worn out Kevlar clutches in wot situations on the dragstrip and street on high end converters. Why many go non lock.

    Alot of these 6/8/10 speed transmisions have problems Nothing is a sure thing. But who is fixing and servicing the builds.

    8HP swap?

    Ya kinda say right there. 5.0 1st Now pulling rear gear would really need way below a 3.08 So the rear doesnt help the car at all. This tranny is not for the buick world But one can put anything in anything with enough money.

    Need some advice on Turbo/Converter for a 100% Street driven car

    Your research should not of lead you to old cast wheel journal bearing turbos. There are billet wheel turbos in bb even triple bb without hubs these days. Also converter teck has come so far. 2800 rpm is not the right stall for the turbos you have chosen above.
