Default Typical turnaround on turbo purchase from Speedinc.com?

Just wondering how long it has taken for you guys that have purchased from Jim/Tom at Speedinc.com to get it.

I contract at two locations that are hundreds of miles apart and I've requested it to be shipped to one of them. Hoping I'll be at that location (Mon - Thur) when it arrives.

Thanks!
Dave

Just called SpeedInc.com and talked to Nick (Friendly and helpful guy) and he said my check cleared on Sat, the turbo was ordered (From Precision) today, so it should be shipped from Speedinc by next Monday. Perfect!

Sweet! What's your goal/application for this? Street/Strip or just Strip?
I have a new hotside coming as well so it should work out well. I ordered the 3.5" turbine outlet after hearing from a friend that the 3.00" can be less beneficial at above 600 rwhp. Were you already in the market for the 7675 or did you opt (as I did) for it because of the recent 'observations' thread Jim put out?

After reading the entire thread, I went out and looked at the turbine on my current Tc76 and throught, "you know, that is rather small to be pushing all that exhaust through...".

Looking forward to your and my posts after the 7675's are installed.

Hahaha.. yeah, I think I found that thread last night in a google search. Something about pacesetter going bankrupt and making it damned near impossible to get a set. Sorry to hear that. Hopefully, all the other vendors will stay in business!

The thread Jim made help me make my decision. But I was looking at the 7675 before his thread also. I saw the difference in Numbers guys were
Making threw out the graph from the TC78 I was looking at.. Not to mention what they were picking up in there E.T's. My car is mostly a street car, but it will see the track a handful of times threw the year. I was hopping to have the car done in 2-3weeks but I was just laid off today for 5weeks so once I go back to work I'll finish up buying the lil things I need to finish it up.

Ouch! I hear you on the layoff, or as my shop calls it, a 'rolloff'. I guess that's supposed to make it sound 'softer'. Too bad I can't tell my bill collectors to 'rolloff' till I get 'rolled on' again. Lol...

Are you in I.T. ? That's my field.

Anyway, I hope things pick up again for you. Every year for the past 3, I've been rolled off for 1 to 3 months per year. I got my first paycheck from this most recent 'roll on' and ordered the 7675
