[QUOTE=DrTurbo]
For the T series buyers, they are out of turbine wheels right now. They "claim" to have some arriving on Friday.


Friday is here Any update whether they have the stuff to assemble my MPS or if they confirmed the notice to ship to us directly?

Don't know all the specifics myself, but I do know the S76 will spank all the other units handily in power, as well as the GT42-76. A/R ratio I believe is a 12cm^2 or 1.1A/R, their is also a 1.3 A/R as well if I'm not mistaken.

I called Jose a little while ago to get an update. They are in the shop with "Hass, Haaz...something like that" getting a new CNC machine installed that was delivered last week , so he hasn't had time to get online or the others. He said though that T-netics told him this morning that they started shipping out orders on Friday 8/25 and will continue to ship out through this upcoming Friday 9/1. Looks like they had a sXXtload ordered. I called T-netics to get the scoop myself...and they did say they have a large backorder lists for ALL T4 series turbos due to shortages on housings and some turbine wheels, so looks like suppliers are the hold up . Oh well at least Jose is calling and bugging them as well......

His unit did not show up. The first batch was from the orders that came on the first day of release. The schedule shows the latest orders to ship by Thurs. and Friday. So they are moving units out pretty quick.

In the future we plan to keep units on the shelf though.

Dr Turbo is on the ball And he's right...didn't show up.

I just got the non BB TC76. Can't really justify the BB for a street car....now if it was an all out max effort car, i'd definately get the BB turbo.

I'd appreciate it if they did drop ship it directly from Tnetics though. The car is dead in the water without a turbo
