when i started looking into turbo setups, i looked on the turbomustangs.com board as well as the NMRA board. figure the largest area of turbo's that MIGHT match up to something i'd need would be on the NMRA board

limitengineering.com sold me my turbos as well as Jammer's turbos. Craig uses precision housings and has been known to be very knowledgable. I don't know how his prices compare to others.

Better order it way before you need it. I ordered my precision from jose at forced inductions and it has been 2 months and still no turbo. thats the only thing holding me up from having the fab worked finished in the engine bay so i can final assemble everything. Supposedly they had shipped it 2 fridays ago but still no turbo lol.
