500whp possible on an 03 stock turbo?

I was talking to some people about diesels and they said that it is not possible to get 500whp out of a stock turbo. i told them that it is possible but your pyro may be faster than you tach. I know that i have seen on here of people that are doing but i cant find dyno sheets. I would like to prove these guys wrong. so does someone have dyno sheets to prove it?
thanks for the help

I think it would be more possible to do it with a stock 04.5 and up turbo. It can be done though. It'd help if you had some NOS to supply some extra air.

X2

Exactly what I was gonna say.

Its not gonna happen on an 03 unless you have other crazy mods like nitrous, propane, duel pumps and it would be pointless and retuarded at that point to keep your stock turbo.

04.5+ yeah no problem

Yup. The 03 turbo is not the greatest for max power. You may figure a way to do it after spending a lot of $$$ but it's not going to do it for long....
