78 Riviera turbo

[Oldsguy]

Hi all,
I have a complete setup from a 78 Riviera. I want to use this turbo somehow but I really have no idea what it flows. It says it's an AiResearch T3, .60/.82, but how could a regular T3 not choke a 231 at high RPMs? looking at a T3 map, it seems like the only boost this turbo will support is less than 5 lbs, and that's pushing it.
What compressor map should I really be using? And while we're at it, what compressor map is similar to the later EFI turbos to use?

i know nothing about your turbo i just noticed in your sig that you have a roadie and a cutty

I also have those i have a 96 RM sedan and a 70 cutlass

I haven't done much to the RM except for muffler delete, sewer pipe and K&N, and I got my own cable and reprogrammed the PCM (though I haven't learned the proper way to adjust timing and have been playing around with it - can't do anything as long as my laptop is DOA, though.) I also did front and rear sway bars, front T/A and rear stock SS.
I rebuilt the 455 in the Cutlass, hopefully next year it's getting re-bodied and painted (it looks OK now, but the bodywork done by the PO involved a few 5 gallon cans of bondo, and I am just going to start fresh with an unadultered body).

Anyway, anybody know anything about this turbo?
