Is anyone running thr brand on3 turbo set up on there fbody? If so how are there kits? Pros and cons?

 

I am and no problems so far in my ws6

 

Power wise ? Quality

 

no problems here after almost 2 years of running the kit.

 

Back when I had the on3 7665 on my LQ4. Put it on my buddies Silverado shortly after and he sold to someone who is still using it.

 

Was this on a stock lq4?

 

Stock bottom end. Had a Speed Inc. TU1 cam in it.

 

All the reviews I have read online say "junk/oil leaks/ poor fitment". But the previous responses make me question. Keep us posted

 

IMO it all comes down to people that had bad experience will post about it 99% of the time yet people with good experience dont necessarily say anything about it.

For as many as they sell it seems to be a good choice for a budget build.

I have even had problems with top of the line Garrett ball bearing turbos so its just luck of the draw in some cases..

 

So i guess it comes down to luck almost lol

 

I was looking at their 88mm, and possibly their 76 for twins depending on which way I go. Looking over their ad on the 76 and it says no warranty. If you install it and it pours oil out, I guess your stuck with it? I can see not giving a long term warranty, but that sucks.

 

redrocket what kinda drive pressure did you have with that turbo. i have cx 7665 for my 5.3 currently but strongly considering going 7875. ill be shooting for 600whp this year. any opinions on what will work fine. ive been looking at the tu 1.5 for a cam.

 

I did a lot of reading before buying my kit, went with Huron and last I checked it cost me 1,000 bucks more for Huron's kit while running a cheap turbo. You'll hear a lot of negatives about On3's fitment and lack of delivery of missing parts ect, and its probably true that many who use On3 and have no problems don't post but I haven't come across and negative reviews for Huron. Call On3 and ask some detailed questions and you'll find out quick what they know or don't about their products. Look for a used Huron kit, they are out there. Also resale on Huron will be much easier and better if that happens

 

Damn huron kits seem pretty koo for the price... and seem better as quality wise

 

I'm not sure on what the drive pressure was. It ran out of steam at 5600 though.

 

Not an F-body, but I've been running a pair of their 70's for a little under a year now. No problems at all so far.
