Did not know thanks. I've been out of the loop a while, busy.

The VS Racing turbos seem to be a good deal.

I'm on the fence between a VS racing billet s480 and a borg cast s480. I'm just concerned about durability with the VS turbo.

I don't think my observations are the final word on the subject or anything, but I have never seen anyone complain about a VSR turbo. Pretty impressive since he sells quite a few.
