Assuming a turtle or tortoise evolved adaptations to become large comparable to that of sauropods. How large could they become (in weight or potentially carapace size)? The turtle needs to be primarily terrestrial.
Adaptations:
Hollow, honeycombed bones (including shell)
More efficient lungs like that of birds
Metabolisms comparable to those of sauropods.
