I said boohoo on the sts turbo idea as well until I saw one make about 150whp over stock. The larger displacement engines have so much exhaust volume even near the tailpipe that they can spool a decent sized turbo. What's the sense of having a turbo system able to make 900whp at the manifold when your engine will only take 450whp? I agree it's not optimal but these slushbox mulletmobiles are still better off being force fed.
