What are the differences between the 11 blade and the 7 blade and when would one be beneficial over the other.

So far everyone using the modded 11 blade units in the S366's seem to not like them since they are not making the power claimed. Im assuming yours are the same 11 blade that MANY other vendors are selling and claiming as their own.

Thanks

Your ASSumption is incorrect. Just because both wheels have 11 blades does not mean they are the same wheel.

Your answer to the 11 versus 7+7 question is in post #103.

S400SX-66 ETR HO 73mm turbine wheels .88 AR housings. 1019 a piece. That's 1800hp worth of turbo to the flywheel. Should be enough to crank out 1400rwhp easily. 2 of them of course....

Both turbos had the 96/1.32 hotside. A 1.58 housing will be tested shortly.

Been trying for an hour to get photobucket to work and cant... i have pics of the turbo to post if i could get some help.
Not trying to be funny, can you tell what are you doing when you say (gate pinned shut) wil it make more boost, and is it hard to do? Great power gain by the way.

Gate pinned shut means...the gate is shimmed closed. Which means the turbo will make maximum boost it can possibly make.
