Probably will be only complete turbos. If Tnetics gives us the ok to CNC the housings for upgrades we will do it. But for right now I can only say for certain that the units will come as complete units right now.

my turbo is really tight where it is and im thinking about moving it but if i move it i might as well step up to a larger frame turbo and let this 6.0l eat.

They are almost the same size but the Precesion is a far better unit.

Only until the 83mm turbine come out for the TC...... Right now the 80mm F-1 turbine wheel doesn't flow on the exhaust side what the larger 82mm GT42/GTS turbine flows.

If you want to take the drive to Rochester, you're welcome to check out my front mount with the PT7875. It's easier to get an idea when you can see it.

I ran the TC76 for 3 years and now the 7875. The TC was a good unit, I really don't have any complaints about it. It served me very well. The Precision however spools almost as fast and carries a lot more up top, especially once you get over ~15 psi.

The TC is a good deal smaller though. I had to do a little work to get the 7875 in it's place.
