Maybe you can show this guy the one new for $640 and offer him $550 shipped

haha, i doubt he'd come down even when presented the same turbo for 100 less

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

link me and i'll buy one right now

best i found was 640

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



i bet you would

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

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?

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

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)

how'd it do on a 6 liter?

if i do go with the s400 i'll have to deal with the 5inch discharge on the t6 housing.
thinking about just dumping it out the fascia (on the passenger side).
not exactly inline with the "street car" look, but a hell of a lot cheaper and easier then trying to run 5in exhaust around the motor.

Turbo. Engine go boom, sell turbo kit, rebuild as N/A with monster parts.

57 trim with a .48 is WAY to small even for twins. on your motor even 4 of them would stil be small-ish

they will support about 230whp each and you will have no high rpm power. nothing like twin turbocharging your car and going slower.

precision makes the best street turbo's for a budget based build

Judging by people's posts, a lot of people lack very basic turbocharger science. Not that I am a fan of them but plug his info into any turbocharger mapping calculator and see why it wont work well.

Please understand this BASIC info before recommending that people spend thousands on shit that wont work worth a fuck. http://www.turbobygarrett.com/turbob...o_tech103.html

LMFAO, 230HP Each?

who needs to understand basic what?

i'm not sure the street legalities of dumping it out like that... or if you plan to have it street legal even. I did a 4" DP with a 4" cut out then split into 2 3" pipes through 3" magnaflows and out the tail pipes... only cuts about 8 HP i think it was and a few tq... not enough for me to worry about really... and its quite when I want it to be and louder when I open the DP.

streetable is a priority, street legal, err, not so much.
