Thanks for the help.

In theory yes, but adding more compressor wheel is worthless without an exhaust wheel that can keep up. The inducer is 82mm and the exducer is 75mm on the exhaust wheel.

I do not, these are pictures that On3 posted up. The turbine wheel looks to be a direct copy of the F1-75 wheel found in the Turbonetics 7875 units.

I should have mine later this week. If I get it before the weekend I'll post up some pictures comparing to their 76mm which I also have.

Are these going to be sold on On3's website? Does anyone have a link to where one can be purchased at? They are not on On3's website and the above e-bay link pulls up nothing.

I would imagine you have to call them, I've looked everywhere as well and no dice.

I spoke with them back in February and they said they were still a couple months out with testing. Looks like it's been thoroughly tested/tweaked given the timetable, really eager to get my hands on one. Anybody wanna buy a TC78?

They had 3 on ebay and already sold them, so the listing is no longer there. Im sure you could call them and order one up. I understand this turbo is not a comparison with the box stock s475, most people bring that turbo up when peeps are talking budget turbo's and to get one that has a t4 housing your looking at $1000.

All the their adds were gone earlier. They are back now and so is the turbo.

I wonder how comparable they are to the Turbonetics 7875 units besides the Turbonetics being ball bearing only? Pretty close in specs from what I can gather.

I figure for $420 on a $500 junk yard 5.3 it's worth a shot for sure. Seems like the track record lately on the on3 stuff has been good. I know they had some issues a year or 2 back but I think they're having a solid product put together now that they can stand behind.

This is from a thread where someone asked how much power a T7875 would max out at...

Looks like on a 5.3 backed with an auto it's the money size...
