Just a quick update, after much work and knuckle busting, I managed to fit in a Garrett GT 40 plain bearing turbo where the T78 once was. Nick Riefner at N-Tech was mostly responsible for the installation and he did an amazing job and an amazing amount of work (all night as a matter of fact!). The Garrett is the 82mm turbo with a .94 hot side and the less agressive of the two turbine wheels (both 77mm but different trims). Apparently the 88mm wheel ONLY comes with the 1.34 hot side or a 1.19 on special order. I'll have more later including a full writeup in another post.

 

i swear by ITS up and down, i havent built a street motor with one. but they seem to last forever in endurance race conditions, so it'll laugh at a street motor (no offense)
