Default 600 hp turbo?

A buddy of mine has a 92 Pete with a mechanical 425 hp cat. He stated that he put a 600 turbo on his motor to give him more hp and better fuel economy!

Has anyone ever heard of some doing this and does that 600 hp turbo actually give him more power and better fuel mileage?

He boast that he can run and pull with the big dogs!

There's no such thing as a "600 hp turbo".

The 600hp turbo is part of the radial muffler and fuel injected differential package... :P

Okay thanks! But will it give you more pulling power than a standard 425 Cat!

Will a mechanical 425 Cat pull as well and get as good of fuel mileage as an electronic 500 - 550 Cat?
