new intake setup....help!...hows it sound??

hey guys
here are pretty much my goals i plan on accomplishing....i have a 383 hooked up to that power robbing tpi....well my option is to go to the hsr, but the kit is a little too much for me right now....i am building a turbo setup for my z, so my mooney needs to be split up 2 ways here....so rather than the hsr heres what im thinking for now

edelbrock high-flo tpi system...summit part no...edl-3890
bbk 58mm tb
and i already have accel injectors

this plus my custom turbo manifolds
single turbonetics t4 turbo run 8psi
turbonetics racegate
and no intercooler

just want to hear some feedback on the setup...i havent made up my mind on wat i want to do about the ecu...thanks guys!!

oo also...what hp numbers at the rear wheels would i be looking at with this setup

The system you listed is basically the same price as the HSR...


The HSR is much better than the $700 LTR setup unless you want to sacrafice top end power for some low end tq.

I think you think the HSR is much more expensive than $700 which it isn't.

BTW...8 PSI through any SBC is gonna kick ***!

Actually, I recommend skipping the edelbrock high-flo tpi system and bbk 58mm tb. First get it up and running with the turbo. This will leave some extra $$$'s that could come in handy.

Then after driving it for a while evaluate the setup. Then decide whether they are required, or that the HSR or another setup would be better.

True, but you have to keep some things in mind like the HSR sitting taller than the TPI systems for your piping etc.
