RE: Hellion 76mm turbo ?
Im going to a 67mm instead of the 62mm. I havent maxed out the 62 but I cant imagine it would do 700rwhp. the 67 will be more than enough if you want 550rwhp. I think those max around 800rwhp?

You can get big power out of either but you are gonna have to do many more supporting mods and the price is gonna go through the roof

RE: Hellion 76mm turbo ?
yeah, the hP website says 700hp, not 700rwhp. 700hp is probably 550-600 rwhp, which would make more sense for a 60mm turbo.
As far as my impressions, I love it. Drives like stock until I don't want it to, then it screams. Spool is almost instant, and it will shred the tires in third gear. A lot of people say turbos are hard to tune, but Brenspeed did it with no problems, and their base tunes (non dyno) are incredible. When i dyno'ed it there, they could only get 20-30 more hp out of it from their base tune. If you have any issues, Dave at Brenspeed has done a lot of installs and knows how to do it right. You can't go wrong. Now, once you get up to the 500+ rwhp range, a lot more comes into play that needs to be considered (fuel, MAF, tranny, driveshaft, etc), and some of those will start to affect driveability a little, but nothing that's not worth the power

go supercharger, that way you don't have to fear turbo lag
, and you will push 550hp or more
