Subscribing. Same same project. Waiting for some parts to arrive.

What about those inexpensive turbos on ebay? Are they just ?

i've been told the cheap ebay turbos suck and the cheapest turbo that you can trust is a masterpower tubro. i know forcedinductions.com sells them as well as some other sponsers.

You can get a brand new BW s475 shipped to your door for around $600. They can support 1076HP. That's what I'm using on my 6.0 project.

S475 here also, best bang for your buck. It will make the power you want, with room to grow.

Exactly 1076?? I know a guy running a s475 on a 2.0L making right around 1000whp. That's a very capable turbo.

I've ordered an s480 for my 6.0l build.
