They are $2000+. As for GT42-81, it will make less power then a 42/45R due to the larger comp wheel and turbine wheel of the 42/45. As for the S80, it will match the 42/45R and the S88 that is coming will outpower it and a GT47-88.

Kyle meant to say S80. Its a custom unit made from several different parts from several companies and turbos. Bascially the best parts from several turbos. We can pack big power into smaller packages.

Yes the S88 will mount right in, in place of the 42 . We are rating it at 1575hp. We won't know for certain until its on the flow bench. Also we are designing new housings to be casted. So we will hopefully have a T4 and T6 variant. Also I am working on designing a new compressor wheel and cover for the S80 and have sent the CAD drawings already to our casting facility. Not sure what the turnaround is going to be at this point. The new compressor wheel has a shorter tip height to keep the machining time down, but we have worked on the pitch and trim to keep the flow up. Should work awesome.
