It will make decent power, twins would make better power

 

It cost about $30 more and to order it I phoned them directly and spoke with someone about it. This was months ago the guy mentioned they did not have many of the 1.0 housings left. Maybe this is different now.

I recommend calling and asking and placing order via that route.

 

As far as I know there are several housings. Don't quote me on this, but I believe there are .68 (divided), .81 (open), .96 (divided), and 1.0 (divided). Again don't quote me on this. We have only got the .81 and the 1.0 so far.

 

If my budget weren't so tight and if I had a 6.0 I would be doing twin t70's .68ar and a whole lotta boost with e85 trust me my friend but my boosted 5.3 will have to do

 

I've used the ball bearing 76 .96 a/r frontmount, the 76 journal .81 on a rearmount, and a 70 1.0 a/r frontmount. They are all going strong. I wouldnt hesitate to use them on anything.

the 70 has been on the car for over a year, daily driven with a/c and runs high 6s 102-103 on 6psi ls1 cam only.

 

What is the warranty on these?


I built a 30s ford hotrod last year. I purchased a few chinese made parts for that car. Oil pan,valve covers,and pushhrods. The oil pan was off 2 times trying to stop an oil leak...no go...bought a Milodon..fixed it. Valve covers had to be modified to keep them leaking and for the breathers to work right. Pushrods....4 were bent...not straight..out of the box.. You get what ya pay for. It should be interesting to see how all of the o3 turbos that were purchased here how they are doing a year from now..I deal with inferior "stock" replacment parts everyday on late model cars and it is very frustrating when the part doesnt fit or do the job it was intended to do. Plus...why support the chinese economy anymore..


Carry on .....

 

I've been contemplating on running there 70s .68 on my twin build. The only prob running prob running there 76 for a single setup is the small turbine wheel making the motor run out of steam around 600-650rwhp and limited on tpms. But twins would be more ideal. And at $350 a pop, one blows or engine let's go who cares!

 

No warranty. But what big mfg is gonna warranty something without some sort of cost or tell you it was "installation error" on your behalf.

 

Im going to push there t76 96a.r to the limit on my build this summer.... 5.3-ls6 cam-victor jr manifold-e85-meth injection-4l80e Do you think it will take me over600 rwhp

 

Which of there 76, bb or journal? BB has little bit bigger turbine wheel and can get them in a .96 housing. Journal is. 81 biggest you can get. What's reasoning for e85 and meth

 

We have a 1.0 or .96 (I forget which it was) journal bearing 76mm sitting at the shop...

 

I received my .96 a/r journal on3 turbo two weeks ago. Definitely looks like a nice piece.

 

Yeah the biggest turbine housing they make for 76mm sleeve bearing is .96ar just ordered mine a week ago off the phone. Just gotta ask for it.

 

No one really warranties race or high performance damaged equipment. Only place I know of is Turbonetics, as long as don't break there seals

 

My magnums do!!

competition and racing use does not void my warranty.

 

OP- I have and run a 0n3 kit on my 96' the things that i would recommend to you if you buy the kit is new v band clamps, and run cooper rtv on the joints and would get gaskets for each joint. After that there has been zero problems with the kit.

Also I use to have and run a sts kit.... Oooo god what a nightmare. Hope that you dont buy one of these. But if so I know i hatched out a lot of the draw backs and could help you with a few of them...

 

Jegs carrys on3 performance stuff now so their products cant be too bad

 

There are people running 6xx plus hp on their turbo systems out of a 4.6 with 20 plus psi. So? I dont think they could be too bad... People are running 10's on that kit

In my previous post, those are there weakness....

 

Could you show me a link to this?

Thanks

 

I would just call on3 and talk directley with them. They are good guys and stand behind there product. Very good customer service.
