Chuck, from what I remember, .82 = 30whp more at sea level on a 700+whp setup honda uncorrected. 300 rpms slower spool.
I think you are going to max out the compressor before the turbine so you wont see much gain. My guess. How big is your exhaust? Assuming you have 3" IC piping and a beefy core. I would rather do those things and intake manifold before lagging more. If you can rev to 8k, I guess it might not matter though.
Aren't guys shifting 8500 rpms on the old t350's with no problems (they add positive stops to the shifter to protect the forks)? Bansheenut shifts his oldschool 568 at 7200 with no hitches on a solid 6 puck (my suggestion to keep weight down) and will be trying 8000 soon enough.
the 2-3 ratios are only good in the 1989-1990 5 speeds and a few select other older trans. Chrysler decided on their beefier transmissions to ruin the 2-3 shift. They added like 300-400 rpms more "drop" between gears depending on where you shift.
Who are you buying the parts through?
BTW, my clutch problem seems fixed with a 3300# plate eek!
