Intro pricing for first 50 units is $999. Wait time is right now 2 weeks. If you want one, better get your order in asap.....

LOL i'd buy one right now if there was no wait time....no thanks 2 weeks will turn into 2 months.

How about the 76 to 78mm upgrade costs? Are these being done in house or is T netics doing these?

We plan to do them in house to keep the wait time down to a minimum. In house 3-4 days.

Guys Tnetics is covered up...I kid you not as is every other manufacture as well as us. The problem is orders come in faster then the manufactures can cast parts. Best time to order turbos is in sept and on.

Dr turbo will this turbo put down more power on say my car running the same fuel and same boost level or is the only way to see the extra power to up the boost which would mean up the octane rating of the fuel. Would I be able to see gains utilizing the same old pump gas in the car? I am pretty sure I have heard of people swapping turbos and running the same boost level, but gaining power. Is that true?

Unfortunately Turbonetics does not have the maps for the new wheels yet. Only total flow figures.

Typically if efficiency climbs HP climbs per lbs of boost. So in theory your HP should climb with same boost pressure, how much is really hard to tell.
