Re: 1985 Trans Am Turbo/T56

With the stock TPI & 10psi boost it made 350hp/450ft-lbs on the dyno. I'm guessing closer to 400hp/500ft-lbs now with the First intake?

Re: T56 on a 305?

I agree. Your car has 3.08 gears if it's the original rear end. If you swap in a T56, changing to 3.73 or numerically higher gear would be recommended.
