I have some. I got them new in the box for 1k.

Helps to know alot of rotor heads

I didnt notice a huge difference bteween them and the the old ones.

They did spool a bit faster.
Can't wait to see the kill section when you get back on the road...

hey, i have these turbos also...they make lots of noise too, i can always hear them spooling up, but i wonder how much power they make.



hey, boOost, where'd you get your turbo from, don't worry about the price, i paid that much for them also, meaning i TOO got swindled

And why would it be better to go non-seq? Can you explain the benefits between parallel and non-sequential?
the turbos were made sequential in order to avoid turbo-lag...to keep it streetable for the consumers. in non-sequential, they both spool at the same time. there is more lag, but you get more power much earlier than on sequential. it is very smooth, i hear, like a single turbo. another advantage is that non-seq gets rid of almost all of the cluttered up hose lines, so it really simplifies maintenance. also, if you're going for boost pressure above stock, i've heard it's much safer on non-seq than sequential. read this i plan to make the conversion as soon as i can get the 2 fuel upgrades.

that's actually the air intake you hear, but it does mean that your turbos are spooling.
