But that spool speed was achieved with a turbo the same size as the standard STS unit.

You can actually spool a 1500hp turbo if you go small enough in the turbine side but you will never see the bennefit of so much power. There is a balance of motor to power. Notice how they say 2.5L to 10L and gives you a whole bunch of turbine housing options. That means you need to know your motor and goals!
Thanks you for that awesome lesson in turbocharging dynamics.... I had no idea

Additional engine work has been done, and I am headed back to Performance Factory this weekend for Jeremy to work some of his magic and see what he can pull out of the car. Will post numbers and dynos when the tuning is complete.

Do we get any hints as to what kind of engine work was done? Also, did you switch the turbo from the 0.68 to 0.58 are you last stated you wanted to do?

Yeah I got rid of the Z in July mine was an 03 so I didnt get much for it. As for suggestions I dont know what to tell you the market is bad. Do you remember Tommy with the Blue Z with the work XD9s he is having his buddy sell his maybe I can talk to him. Have you tried taking it to carmax? They usually appraise cars fairly.
