Default So i had no idea what i was getting when

Hey guys

Im currently putting together my truck build. Ill start a build thread soon. After talking to the tuner we determined my t76 was to small. Not to be confused with the slightly smaller tc76. Got on the phone with forced inductions and I went with their recommendation of the borge warner s400 80mm 1.32 AR.

My old set up was a garrett gt67, i had bought the t76 to replace it not knowing it was to small. So when my new turbo along with other parts showed up from forced induction I was excited.

My wife dropped the turbo off at my buddies house where we are working on the truck ( Thanks Mike). We brought the box inside. I sat down to eat. Mike proceeded to open the turbo box, And when he opened it he starting laughing. So I thought mike has never seen a good size turbo before.

Well he pulled it out of the box and thats when I started laughing. I realized that I have never seen a good size turbo before.

So long story short here are some crappy phone pics of my giant 2 year old next to my s400. The some side by sides of the gt67,t76,s400

gt67,t76,s400.
