Turbo Discussion IN HERE

Tossing the idea around of trying out a new turbo.
Just recently got my 6.0 built (forged bottom end) and wanting to throw a different helper on it.

I've narrowed it down to two

Turbonetics HP 88/75 - $2286.00

OR

Borg Warner S480 - $1650.00

Currently running Turbonetics 78/68 , just wanting to upgrade.
Any advice or experience would be appreciated.

My brother's camaro made 1032rwhp on 25lbs with a CRT billet s480. It is a built 370 , 6spd, ported 243s, and ms3pro.

If you have issues with the borg turbo you can get a rebuild kit at any diesel components shop for the borg except for the 360 thrust plate. If you have issues with the turbonetics you are looking at a **** ton of money to fix it and will have to be sent to turbonetics ( I know from experience ).
