The Special is a 64 - 71 - 14 that I can tell you the Super B is 58 -67 - 14 I believe

ATS Warranty is onl good for so long I cant think of it off the top of my head It's a Certain amount of miles or Years.

But to m knowledge I know of only 3 A5K blowing up and 4 A3K blowing up alot less than II or HTT or BD.

Just a friendly reminder, running all capitol letters means your yelling back. With one exception, you can use all capitol for abbreviations. So if you could, please tone it down a notch??

BTW, took me 3 days to decide on a turbo. I called a half dozen companies and let them know what mods I was running and what my future plans are, which is the most important thing.

Running a bigger turbo will improve a little bit more than a stocker. Point is, It's all about matching compressor/turbine wheels and housings to the mods your running. Any bigger or smaller, and your going to run into performance issues.

I hope this helps a little.

This is very True it actually took me a Week just to decide on a single turbo for a twins setup let alone the three to go to twins.

With the proper matching and tuning you could even make a 12 Valve smokeless.

Thanks for the correction SPEAKSUP! I didn't know the Special was a 64. All I know is this turbo I have is not the one I need. Spend your time and do the research to get the right one.

Yeah I know how that feels sometimes when your broke and you have to resort to the Credit card as the last resort.

Keep your head up man everything will work out
