I was checking out the specs on the GT3788R the other day, it looks like it would be a great turbo to use on both Drag and Street.

I used to run a Gt35R .82 on the exhaust housing Daily driven on the street and I loved it.

Those came on the GM 6.5L turbodiesel engines. I have one at home that I tried to use on my 94 cavalier 3.1L V6 and it wouldn't even spool it past 5psi. I would not recommend that for use on a 4 cylinder, it's meant for much larger displacement engines.

As for the GT3788R, I'll have to read up on it to make a valid comment. Not familiar with it.

This is the exact same turbo I run on my weekend track/street car (600whp) I absolutely love it.
