It sounds like you may already be on track with what I'm lookin for though. Thanks.
No worries, thats what I am here for, don't waste your time waiting for a VG turbo, not very reliable!

Twins are a pipe dream for me too and I work here LOL, I run 475HP through my Super B Single and it works awesome. Good spool up, 44PSI and never over 1200EGT!

You are so limited to how far you can modify the stock turbo, I wish I could tell you I have an upgrade kit for your stock turbo but I do not. The extended fin tip technology that I spoke about really is the way to go for all around performance, unfortunately you can not just put that compressor wheel in a stock turbo.

If you guys are serious about upgrading I will see what I can do on price for you guys. PM me if you are interested, I will be here sharpening my pencil!

HTT so i ASSuME that's a Borg Warner right? i'm happy with it.... i might try a smaller exhaust housing though or i'll just send it back and get a upgrade/downgrade to a 62/12 to put on top of something huge....

Yes they are a very nice turbo for the D-max a friend of mine is running 675 RWHP on his 02 using the Supermax. PM me if you ever get serious about getting one and like I do with all the forum members I will get you a good forum members discount price.

Thanks I try to keep it non bias and informative without so much selling but sometimes the answer to the question is a BD part

It not just a good structure that make a forum great, its the people on the Forum and that's what keeps me on this one and off some others.
