Borg Warner is "meh". They are ok. As far as turbo's, I couldn't tell you any REAL world info.. but I wouldn't trust a borg-warner turbo. Garrett, Holset and maybe a few others I would.

Oh snap. Nevermind. I=love detroit. Scoop it up. Though I'm sure some people will tell you on here you'll never be able to spool it

They used small Borg-Warner turbos on the 6.5. Last I had heard they where one of the biggest manufactures of turbos and there a pretty decent turbo as far as I know. The only thing is it will probably not be a performance turbo so I don't know how it will work for you some one with more turbo experience will have to answer that.

That PN is way to generic to tell u what it is, need some specs! Could be a s300 or s400 with up to a 88mm wheel which could explain a stock truck not being able to spool it! Alot of moded trucks couldnt spool it effectivly on the street

i talked to a guy and he said it was simaler to an s400 and with a set of injectors i could spool it but he said it would be dead on the bottem end, unless a twined it with my35

any body think that it would be a decent set up twinned with my 35?

a bord warner is a good turbo, they do the s series. and in my own opinion i would say there a really good turbo. but i also think holsets are junk. id go garret anyday.
