for the power it made i think its pretty on par, given the t2 housing,log manifold combo...numbers seem pretty typical for the gt2871r for a turbo that spools low in the rpm range it still wasnt really dropping off in the upper rpm's like you would think.
there are things to work on, im not so sure yet.

Depends on if that's a 56 trim 2871r and which cams.
