I run the billet pt7675 and like it.works awesome spools as quick as a smaller tc76 from what I've seen and will make way more power. the 7675 turbonetics is also a good choice but I havnt seen any reviews of that

For the money you can't beat a Borg Warner turbo. I just bought a new S475 and got it shipped for under $700. The turbo will support 1,000HP so if you want somethingsimilar PM me and i can help you out. Later Clint

I have a pt7675 and on straightlines dyno yesterday I made 735whp and 920wtq at 15psi on a 5.7. We maxed out the injectors so we couldn't push it much past that. 160lb and more pump are up next. The turbo wasn't even getting pushed.

Do you have any fab skills? You can make something for even less.

As far as a turbo...make a realistic goal and stick with it. I'm running what most would consider a small turbo but the response is instant and the power is what i expected.

If you're on a budget just go for a masterpower 70mm.

im not sure how much the ebay kits go for, but from my experience the quality is lacking, and there is virtually no customer service. plus, why buy a kit you have to make changes on? your time is worth money as well. keep that in mind.

if your interested in buying a high quality kit that fits the first time and has 24 hour customer support. shoot me a pm, id be glad to talk some numbers with you.

Don't you have dual walbros and 60# injectors? I put down 606/570 with the on3 76mm on 14 psi and my 80# injectors were basically maxed. This was on WS6store's dynojet. With the Turbonetics 7875 on 15-16 psi I am over 100% duty cycle (113 ish I believe). Should have it on a dyno the 30th to see where I am now. Are you on stock lines?

Sorry for the hijack OP. I am thoroughly enjoying my Turbonetics 7875 1.15 ar though.

Details on the 5.7? I can't wait to see what my pt7675 does.
Op you don't need deep pockets to afford HS single kit. It's a Quailty kit at a budget price.

I went to 95lbers and twin walbro in tank pumps. The pumps are keeping up with the current injectors but once I up the injectors ill probably be outta pump.

It's a forged LS1 with about 9.5:1 CR
-TU1 cam(225/225 .585 .585 113lsa IIRC)
-317's, dual springs, pushrods, trunion bearings
-LS6 intake


Here is a quick video I had with my TBrake testing. I'll stop thread jacking now.
