Default how much is there left?

i have a 2005 ford mustang gt ( still stock 281cc) with a t76 f1 wheel 81 a/r (journal bearing), car put down 670 rwhp, and 660 rwtq, on 20.7 psi. how much more do i have left in that turbo?, also is a 3" down pipe too small for more boost?
I notice a lot of people switched to a precision billet wheel turbo, i dont want to do that, as i had so much fun and luck with turbonetics stuff, thanks in advance

The 76mm compressor is typically good for 1000 CHP of air as is that turbine.

The compressor to intercooler pipe might not make sense to alter yet till you know for sure it is an issue. Going to a 3" downpipe if it is currently smaller than that would absolutely provide better flow which would reduce backpressure and should make you some more power.

The 81 shouldnt be a restriction for your current power level and likely wouldn't be a an issue till you get higher in the power output area. At 1000 Hp it MIGHT limit you at the top end of the RPM band.
