Lol... I know Ill want more, Im not too hot on the idea of testing my blocks strength though I guess Ill keep it toned down till I win the lottery Also, how fast does a 20G spool up?? Im used to a small 16G
660's should be fine for a healthy amount of boost. Jeff and I know someone running mid 11's on 660's but those injectors may not last more than a year since he is overworking them so much. Basically, his injectors are are 100% duty cycle all the time. They never close and are seeing a good amount of wear I suspect.
The 20G is a large turbo, so one day, you may want to upgrade, but for now, you'll be able to get plenty out of the car with 660's.
Also, spool time on the 20G will feel quite sluggish compared to the 16g, but it will be well worth it once boost hits. Since you're on the stock block anyway, you'll likely not reach the limits of the injectors until around the same time the block is close to its edge as well.
Run it until it blows up, then rebuild it. With that large a turbo, expect one day to have to tear down and start the engine from scratch. Just prepare mentally for that day. Until then, have an awesome time.
Also: How sure are you that that turbo is in tip-top condition?
