The outlet of the compressor cover uses silicone couplers, and not a Vband. That is the same as the 76GTS, TC76, ITS76...etc. Easy to bolt-on

I am intersted also. I have a 408 waiting in the wings to be built and would like to just do a turbo swap instead of building a new setup.

Glad to see you guys have time to post on the net but can't return my calls. Someone from there needs to call me tomorrow. I'm tired of waiting and not having my calls or PMs returned. I need my turbo back! Was also looking to buy a spare but might go elsewhere.

Sorry for highjacking the thread.

I think email is their most reliable response from what they said in another thread. Maybe that'll help out.

If you pm'ed Jason or Jose, then its tough to get ahold of them. Send me the info and I will try to get you squared away and get one of them to call you. They are busy at this time of year (race season).

Spool faster, power will be comparable on the compressor side, but the turbine might be a touch small. Its a more comparable turbine wheel in size and a little more flow then a GTS.

When will you guys be posting more results. I have seen very few out of FI.com for these turbos. I have no doubt that they work but it would be nice for others to see the numbers compared to others. Seems like with so many sold we could see some dynos or something....especially those upgrading from smaller turbos

NastyTA has results, also the S88 track results that were posted as well on the other S88 mustang, also do a search for the S78 and their are dyno results for them. Check other boards as well, plus we have results here, but we only post what the customers allow us to post or tell us we can.

I like using my caller ID as well.

Another day gone by with no turbo or a phone call. Did get a PM from DrTurbo saying that they are just waiting on a part that should be there in a week.

Oh, but wait. This was a part that I told Jose that I didn't want three weeks ago.
