I have a stage 2 extreme kit and I don't think my turbos are close to the size of these ones. I think you can get way more than 1000hp to wheels ? ...... 1200hp?
Also what are the drilled holes for on the cold side ?
Can you also pm me a price.
Thanks Warren

Its a ported shroud/anti-surge housing.
You have to call or email for upgrade.

( mods delete that if you have to, but no sponsor has a ball bearing upgrade for APS. So I hope that didnt break rules)

Verdad Gallardo They are custom turbine housings. DKT linked up with Precision to have custom housings made. I got a per order and my friend with a C5 APS kit got on pre order. DKT says they will fit C5, F-Body kits for sure. They are looking for guys with GTO & G8 to test fit. But idk anyone with those, so..........

Im looking for forward to the results.
^^^^ thank god i dont sell turbos. lol. i dont know. i was just swinging in the dark. i cant find info on the Precision site. i will have to Call Devin tomorrow. but on Garretts site it says the GTX35( which the 6262 had billet wheel also) flows 75lb/min. which if that is the case, that should be like 750 a turbo. lol. i hope i did that math right. lol.

I dont know. I know that i got ducked over on the first APS turbos, and bought extrems from APS. both journal bearings. both went bad. had a State side company rebuild the extreme(name not given but well known), and it went ****. i am tired of spending money on journal bearing turbos. so even if thes make the smae power as LG turbos and cost more. i really dont care. i love the fact there is a ball bearing option. requires less oil. spins more freely between gears. and Precision knows there ****. tons on sponsors on here run them. i had no problem getting on the preorder list.
sorry i will end my rant. just putting my tech advice about my experiance with journal turbos

I think the 6262 turbo has a 62mm compressor inducer with a 82mm exducer. The upgrade journal bearing turbos out there have a 60mm compressor inducer and can have an 82mm exducer. The PTE turbos are probably good for about 20-30 more HP on paper but do give the nice ball-bearing option.
I'm really looking forward to the results andits good someone else is making headway on good replacements. Options are nice to have.

I kept an eye on your power numbers when I was building mine my APS C5. I've got some cool things in the works now.
