Ok well i havent really found a thread that talks about the pros and cons of aurora turbos. I know the purple paint dont mean anything, but why would you want a non wastegated turbo versus a wategated turbo. Next do they hold up and work well, and are they street friendly or just for pulling. The reason i am asking is because i havent really hear anyone talk about them so i dont know anything about them. thanks

 

That purple paint seems to make them cost alot more for some reason

 

i have heard alot of bad things from a few people that have had them. more personal experience tho my buddy broke a shaft on his he was running on his 12 valve.

 

i heard nothing but bad about ATS every says dont buy there products. i also heard they are terrible on customer service and warrentys. i also heard there going out of buissness anyways. just my two cents. build your own for about 1000-1500$
thats what i did

 

well what about the non wastegate is that an advantage or disadvantage?

 

My bud has a A5K on his Dmax and that thing runs like a raped date... Granted with the purple paint he did pay for it but he hasn't had any issues with it and he uses it for pulling and on the street. I thought the 5k would be way to doggy on the street but that turbo spools good.

 

Do they spool faster than any other turbo out ther say a phat shaft or a super b.

 

Being from the southwest, I have to disagree completely with all the bad rep ATS has gotten. They're warranty is awesome, and I have seen it in action, right now they are fixing a friends transmission for free after he blew the output shaft.

My best friend, is running a A4K on his 7.3 PSD and that thing gets it! Newly Tolf out of Durango CO, is running a fully built ATS engine with a ATS tranny, and a A6K turbo, and he placed 3rd at the Desert Diesel Nationals in Arizona earlier this month. I know a few more cummins guys running their products and they all perform just as well as the other name brands, and when something does break, ATS takes care of them
