We have ALOT of customers running the TC76's and TC78's, and as you can see from TJ, they have loved them since day one. TJ might have been one of the first guys to buy them from us. Also Josh at KYTP, his old car was running 9's@140 with a TC76, and LASTLS1 on this board is running a pair of the TC76's we got him a while back. Car is going low 8's@~170mph. They are no slouch.

When ever I call FI they always tell me about some "new" turbo that should work great. Good thing I always listen to what they say and tell them to send it lol. I think its getting time for the 78. Would be awesome to see the ol' hog run 130mph with awd. That will **** off the diesel truck guys, look what we can do with only 20lbs of boost lol. They will need a hundo to keep up at the track.

The Garrett 106 6 blade will make around 2000hp crank. Its one of the baddest turbos for the money. Available in about 2 weeks from GT last I heard. Also the GT5541 is in the works. GT55 turbine wheel with 106 comp wheel!!!!
