402ci twin turbo selection (s366 or billet 7875)
I'm undecided between a pair of s366s or a pair of vs racing billet 7875s. They're in the same price range which is why I'm considering the 7875s. Motor setup is below. Don't really have any goals other than making as much power as i can my current combo with a little wiggle room for later when I get a six bolt block. I know the s366 will get me about 1300ish to the tire. Don't know if I want to push a 4 bolt block much further, but if I can make the same numbers more efficiently with less boost, I'll go with the billet 7875s. Any suggestions are appreciated.
402ci lq4
10.6:1 cr
AFR 230cc heads
1/2" head studs
E85 for now, then switching to alcohol

Hard to go wrong with the BW SXE's.
Great value, perform well and very reliable.
I'd say 1300 would be pushing the cast 366's, so why not a pair of SXE 369's ?

I think I may end up going that route. I had never looked into them because I assumed they were more expensive than they are. They can be had cheaper than a regular 366 with a billet wheel upgrade. I'm waiting to hear back from slow LSX on my offer for his sxe 366s. If not then I found a seller that is offering the the sxe 369s for a really great price. Thanks guys!

Work turbos was selling a pair of 369's fairly cheap recently, not sure if they're still there or not.
Dont forget, the SXE price usually excludes a turbine housing, although they arent expensive anyway. Either way, BW's reputation is second to none.

Yeah I made sure of the turbine housings. Going with the t4 .91 twin scroll because it was the cheapest option. Either way the car should move. Getting the suspension dialed in will be another story.

Work had a pair of 369's with open 0.96 T4 housings, $1900 for the pair, he posted it on FB.
Or you can buy the turbine housings themselves for around $225 each, these have a regular 3 5/8" V-band discharge, same as most T4 housings.
I've the open 0.88's on my 364's, but just ordered a pair of the larger housings from AGP to try. EGBP is already 1:1 anyway....so be interesting to see if these make any difference.

Wouldnt imagine so, divided housing with same number as open tends to be smaller than the open anyway.
Although there are no end of vendors who would have housings in stock
