The S400 is WAY overkill for what you are trying to do. Stick with the 70 or 76mm Masterpower turbo. It will make 575-600 rwhp at 10lbs on pump gas with ease. Pulling the 6.0 for a much smaller 5.3 or 4.8 is a terrible idea. The 6.0 will make 60-70 more rwhp and torque at the same boost level and be just as safe.

pretty tough to find the masterpower now that they are discontinued. what do you think about the on3 76mm 1.0ar turbo, supposed to be a masterpower knock off. i know people hate on on3 with good reason (terrible customer service and terrible hotside parts), but i really haven't heard much bad about their actual turbo's (and they are super cheap)

well, i found someone selling the mpt76 .96ar's for 600 + 40 shipping but thats the same cost as the s475 b/w. might be overkill but there would be room to grow?

You can find them new in the box for $550-$600. I think the mpt76 is an excellent choice for you.

Ill give you $10k for it if you decide you cant put it back together.

doesn't that s475 b/w have a 1.32 ar... wouldn't that be a SLOW boosting sob

It would be very lazy under 5500 rpm compared to the mpt76.

Damn, sorry just noticed that was from 09! lol

Check into the Magnum turbos from VSracing on The turbo Forums. Look to be about the same as the Master Power with the same available options. Made in Brazil just like MP.

What about this monster?

Says sale pending but could still be available, who knows.

This seems like a pretty good deal for a better turbo. Looks better too

I bought a cheap ass turbo, way I see it is if it breaks I will buy a good one, if it doesnt then I saves 50%. That's a gamble Im willing to take.
