I was planning on upgrading to a larger journal bearing turbo and i just came across MAGNUM TURBOS and i was wondering Who was using them and what they thought of them GOOD.... BAD ???

I'm about to tell my master power turbos to upgrade to some magnums aswell.

ModularTurbo Jun 25, 2011 07:40 AM

You are correct I am the main distributor for Magnum.

A little story:
Masterpower stopped supporting the US aftermarket. They got swamped with their OEM work and simply didnt have time for us. So we got pissed and started our own line of turbos.

They are much better but they do cost a little bit more. Also we have them in ceramic ball bearing as well.

Yes Neil@horsepowersolutions is sponsored by ModularTurbo / Magnum

He is running our T76 P trims, we are currently getting ready to let him try out the ball bearing 72's it should get interesting.

thanks for reading,
Rob

What kind of warranty to they have. Are they built in house at your factory?

ModularTurbo Jun 25, 2011 04:24 PM

1 year warranty done here in the USA. They are made in Brazil just like Masterpower.

98blackbirdta Jun 25, 2011 10:11 PM

ModularTurbo Jun 25, 2011 10:37 PM

I went with turbonetics72 f1 65mm t4 .81ar with a 60 series housing!Due to iam still a rearmount!! I wanted a turbo that would beable to work for now.But also be ready to Go up front when ready!! The mangum"s seem to be a great turbo. But in my case i dont think you can order them in a 60series housings!

You say due to still being rearmount, Is that because of the lag associated with them? I have never done much if any research on rearmounts, but I've heard of the associated 'delay' I guess that is there....

I bet with your rear, tranny and set-up now 10's aren't out of the equation.
