you're thinking of DKT i presume, and they're not a sponsor
other than that you have to go to LG: http://www.lgmotorsports.com/product...oducts_id=2157

i know i stir the pot alot...... but personaly i dont think the DKT and LG are even on the same plateform.......
FP's upgraded Mit20 with a Journal bearing. (LG)
or
PTE turbos with Dual Ball Bearing that have made over 1400 horse in a APS kit (DKT)

when i bought my 6766's yes. they were 4200. i know PTE had a price increase so.... idk if the price has changed. but the 6262's are/were like 3200.
LG journal mit 20 is like 2800
DKT ball bearing 6262 is/was 3200.
and but there is no comparision. exhuast back pressure is lower. its BALL BEARING. is CEA compressor and turbine wheel.
to each there own. but no matter what Performance is not cheap.

But the LG's are $2800 for BOTH of them, correct? Or is it just one of them? I don't remember the LG upgrade being $5600 for the two. That almost matched the price of the original kit entirely. DKT's are $3200 a piece, no?

I wonder if the TSR70's will work? My buddy bought the new kit a few years ago when they first came out. His 2.0 cosworth WRX made mid 400's on like 12 lbs breaking the motor in on the dyno. Sick turbo. They are super $$$$ though.
Edit: Never mind, didn't realize it was nearly 6 years ago. Still, APS makes some quality stuff.

Yes lgs are 2800 for the pair, I just ordered the center section you recommended. See how it turns out, not going to put 8k in turbos behind a stock motor and blow em up. Mabye after I build a motor it will be worth it.

Pair
it is a pair.
im not trying to be a dick but there is no easy way to put this.
you really thought they were 3200 each.???? its just a 6262 with a custom exhuast housing.. retial on the 6262 1599.99 EACH. thats 3200 retail.
most places sell this with a common housing for 1440. so 2880..... so DKT has
320 in two custom housings...... i think for the money he has invested to get us drop in turbos he isnt making **** on the return.... LG is using your old housing.
when ever i have asked for pricing on this i was told in a price per pair number. same way LG sells them. price per pair.
---------------------------------
sorry if i came across like a dick. just that surprised me.
I know LONG TIME AGO when I called APS looking for gt35 housings. They wanted 680 ea. no turbo included :/
drop him an email... he'll get back for sure. ...... love the guy to death but he is always working.... go to have a beer and he's busy emailing people.... lololol
