I've actually ran the bb76 on a trans am with great results. I would buy another.
And your talking about the on3 turbo?
what results you achived in your trans am?

.96 exhaust, I've been 6.23@119mph on this turbo spinning all the way with drag radials. I put the slicks on and loaded the motor since it finally hooks and blew my already leaking head gasket. that's with stock 862 heads and pump gas. I have a set of worked 862 heads I'm fixing to put on and get this thing in the 5's.

Thank you very much . Can't decide between procharger or single turbo, both would be tons of fun.

if we are gonna go with a cheap turbo, at least go with one thats had a decent reputation thats company is at least based in the united states and has a pretty decent customer service. they may not be the "highest of qualitys", pedegree'd turbos ever with papers and a breeding history, but cant argue with decent results.

I have an on3 76mm and I find it a little laggy. I dont make much boost below 4000rpm on my LQ9.
I was thinking the boost would come on sooner ?
