Other than putting the turbos on the wrong ends and causing me a hour delay trying to figure out WTF is wrong, he did a good job on the rebuild. I think you'll find he is the best at rebuilding the stock twins.

If you haven't already, you might check with GoodfellaFD3S. Looks like the site is under construction but it's got a number:

well at this moment my stock turbos are out and i dont want to rebuild them. im looking for a fare amount of power but dont want to lose too much response time.
I am for sure going to get a front mount, upgade the cooling, fuel, and open up the exhaust. as of right now the car has a mild street port apex-i intake hks down pipe, apex-i s-afc, oh and the motor was rebuilt 5k ago by a local guy who does 99% of all the rotary work around here. im trying to chose between the hks to4r or the bnr stage 3 turbos i have narrowed it down to those two because of reliability reason. I just want somthing fast and some what reliable

I have the older BNR stage 2's and I love them. They spool plenty quick and make enough power for me right now. The previous owner made 37x HP with them, thats good enough for me. I have also had no problems with them in the 5k miles i've been running them.

You're suppose to call the number on the site. You'll get a lot quicker response.

Here Rich, I'll save you some typing

There cannot be more than a handful of tracks in the US where 180 mph is possible either (unless you count ovals).

FD3SR1,
You didn't answer the question earlier, just where do you plan on doing 180?

Don't say something as stupid as "I want to do 180+", and you won't be treated like a d-bag.

Yeah, anything over 170 and you're just asking for trouble.

Goodfellas, I followed that big BNR thread from 2 years ago, but still can't recall seeing the results you achieved with the stage3. Any comments about it (in addition to your 'sig') would be welcome.

edit
OK I read your cardomain pages. Very nice. Why did you go parallel instead of staying sequential? Because SPO did the same thing? How's the low end spooling?

I keep hearing people taliking about the secret wepon and how awsome it is but I havnt seen them for sale or seen a DYNO on anything!

and yes I know thats way fast and im stupid for wanting to go that fast but I went for a ride in my freinds stealth rtt and we did 165-170mph and i loved it, good ol mopar mussle lol.

I would like to here more from people who have the turbos to see what kind of setup they are running and what kind of hp and tq numbers they pulled from them?

You went that fast in one of those fat tanks? You do know it was made by Mitsubishi and just has a Dodge emblem on it.

On another note, I want to know what turbos I need to do 220 mph in a school zone. Anyone know? Does anyone know if my parents will buy them for me?

It doesn't take much to be capable of 180 in a third gen, they hit 160 stock. A car with stock turbos and other mods could hit 180 so it's a moot point unless the BNRs are worse than stock, which I highly doubt.
