Under testing it lowered backpressure on a 408 Windsor by about 18lbs at 18lbs of boost. It was worth quite a few ponies
I hope mine is one of them..... I ordered on the 6th

would you guys stop making new this or thats...damn it we cant even get them on the car before something bigger and better is coming...

Those that wanted the pictures for the ST-series with a PT88 here they are below...... Comp cover is just a touch larger, but the turbine housing is smaller and the turbo is shorter as well.

Arent you guys coming out with an ST88 also? If so what will it be rated at? 1400+ hp? What are the NMRA drag radial guys running since they are limited to 82, 85, or 88 mm turbos? I am sure they are T6 housings arent they? Just trying to understand the advantage of the T6 housings over the T4 in the 1500 hp and under world..

The Ti wheel is heavier wheel and not really all that great for quick spooling setups. Ti is used in high heat, high pressure setups, such as a single turbo pulling truck or race truck. Diesels with singles and lots of fuel can make some BIG boost and LOTS of heat. We build a unit now with the same comp wheel though made in HIP'ed AL which is lighter and will flow the same amount of insane air.

So given my past queries....re a circa 900bhp capable turbo for a smallish motor....

This unit, with such a small compressor, is surely looking like a hot contender ? It has the top end, and with such a small compressor, surely it will spool fast ?

BB option ?

No BB option yet, but its coming. Also yes we can make these suckers spool pretty nicely and make big power.
