Default what is your opinion of the s300?

Those of you who have run then any problems?

Was going to run twin s300 or twin pt6766. Big differance in price. Looking to make 1000-1100 rwhp on a 370 ls2 street car. Will have mostly street driving.

looked into Turbonetics? Borg makes a great turbo and the 300 series is no exception. I've made 600whp with one in the past.

Both are good turbos. Both will meet your power goals. PT6766 will make more power pound for pound.

Are you dead set on running twins? You can achieve that goal with a single cast wheel S480 and it'll cost you less.

I got twin 66/65 TN turbos for $1400ish shipped. Look at their 60 series turbos. Built great with a 1year warranty. I think you can get Borg for the same price if not cheaper.
