Even when people get good dyno numbers half the time its short lived before they start to have problems and they never get track times out of it. Do a post in the single turbo section and find out how many 3rd gens on the forum have trapped 125 or better on pump gas....you know what your gong to find? Barely any at all, matter of fact I think there are only about 5 and 3 of those people (including myself) had some form of stock twins. What does that say about singles? Does that mean that to BNR upgrades are better than all of those singles that no one has track numbers on cause they cant back thier stuff up and they are all hype? NO, of course not...it just means its real rare for someone to get thier car in the condition that it needs to be in to get good dyno number AND track numbers to back it up. It has nothing to do with BNR twins, there are very few people that have good high hp dyno numbers and track numbers period...no matter what turbos are on thier car.

And for the record I wasnt happy with 300-350rwhp....I was there years ago. My next goal is 130+mph traps on pump gas....and yea I'll still drive it to work all the time just like I did in the past.

Sure, without a doubt. These new BNRs are head and shoulders above the old style, and I am not knocking the old ones either. These new ones have been worry free for me thus far. Not one drop of oil, no oil smoke, boost every time.

at 17 psi on pump gas over a period of time it is not the BNRs I worry about....it's the quality of the gas and the chance of detonation. I am prolly going to run 15 more often than not.

now that give's me some things to think about because I plan to go single in January my goal is to get 400 RWHP but if I could get even 350 on the twins I might be happy with that and would not have to spend to much and an easier R&R job..Hmmmmm got me thinking now...

Just in case some of you dont know, the new BNR's are 100% brand new turbos they are NOT just rebuilt twins with upgraded wheels. The bearings housings and all is aftermarket. The only thing at all thats stock on them is the intake and turbine housing.

i guess my statements were geared mainly torward the initial release of the stage 3 BNR's....

the newer ones, from the pics i have seen, do seem to be completely ingenious

i just want to see more than two people showing some numbers from them
