Possible turbo 318 build

Valvebounce said

Don't trucks run much higher boost figures which will make them less efficent at the lower boost number that a car will run?

I got offered a brand new garett T04E last night for about 1/3 what it's actually worth. Would that be any good on a 318?

truck-turbos have pretty wide powerband,plus they are of modern design! so if you choose one from a engine thats about doubble the size of your petrol engine, I can promise you some juice! lets take an example:
formula offroad car, mounted in a used 383 LS1-engine(sorry naming that) and fitted a turbo from a 14L scania, @ 0,9bar, thats about 12psi? he has 860hp. stock engine.
