Like I said, dont see a turbo on that list. Is that a special formula of Brut deodorant? "brut 66, go ahead, put it on!"

LOL It is there. I think it is a NLTD turbo. It would be great for up to stage 2 injectors and even for detuned hybrids. But in no way a turbo of choice for 600+ HP..

I was messing with you TY. Just had to say it.

The turbo will suport 600. Actually the more accurate statement is..the turbo has been supporting 600 for a handful of trucks now over the last 2 years. Including our race truck.

Jason I am in no way saying it will not support 600+ HP.. Just saying it would not be THE turbo of choice for a 600+ HP Build. I love drop in turbos. They have there place. But I would not say it is the turbo of choice.

But I maybe wrong. Would not be the first time!! But I guess if you can do it and keep back pressure in check and boost in check then it should last. Might not last as long as a normal T4 setup But should last.

Jason I am not in any way shape or form say your products are no good. if you all put it out then it has to be good. thought I would clear that up.

If the drop in will support 600 horse then why even sell the s468 kit?

Well I'll retract my critique of the combo above then...didn't know it was a site sponsored backed power formula for a 575hp DD....

Fuel only 600hp? Any backpressure logged? Whouda thunk drop in turbo and 100% nozzles are making 575 hp now? Go ol' 7.3!

Ive rode in Johns race truck with the brute 66. Very fun and VERY quick. Turbo spooled as fast as a stocker.

The options a T4 mount has. As well as customers who want what they want.

Guys..it's all good!!!! :thumbsup:

Even if you guys were pounding on it..you all have a right to your opinion. I didn't post to "shut anyone up" just posted a fact or 2 for those that didn't know.

I never felt like the product was under attack in any way.
We are not claiming some kind of life altering invention here..it does work well up to 600hp..that being said anything much over that is out of it's range!!!
BUT..

For a guy on a budget looking for a reliable dd 525-600 on fuel this turbo may be worth looking into.

I have also rode in jons truck and have driven his with that turbo. It had my 300/400s in it at the time. It was a bad ass ride! I was too busy trying to keep it in a straight line to watch gauges too much but I did look up and see 50psi once and it was not hooking up. I was very impressed!

It would not be mine....how's that for honesty!!!!!

thuglike · Nov 10, 2013

Someone asked about BP....

Boost usually hits 50-55 with Backpressure around 65-70 ish so a little bit higher than 1:1 but more than acceptable!!

starting to regret my 38r purchase but i think im safer with the 38r. for now at least.

Very Honest Jason!! Again I did not mean anything negative about what was said.

It would be a sweet turbo for work stock if you had a tech that did not check things close..

I hope I'm not shooting myself in my foot by putting in a T4i flange turbo mount. I can get a T4 flange also and weld it up for later by putting in flange connectors on the up pipes. Just will take time and more parts.

thuglike · Nov 10, 2013

This turbo is directed at the guy who does not want to get into a t4 set-up. The guy that loves the ease of a drop-in....

Think of it as a re-buildable 38r that will outflow a 38r.

Buy it..tunes are free and get a full 1 year warranty (with our tunes)

end of commercial.....

I think it depends on if you want to select from Holset/Bell turbos (T4i) or if you wanted to select from Garrett/Borg Warners (T04, aka T4).

Borg Warner and Garrett only sell one type of gasket for both last I knew....with the east/west dimension slotted the extra .125 on each side to accomodate the differences between the two.

T04 aka T4

T4i
