Majestic Turbo Upgrade - any good?

Looking at getting some new turbos and was wondering if anyone has any experience with Majestic Turbo's FD upgrade? I heard that Pettit uses the same upgrade package - is this true?

Any thoughts on reliability, performance, etc. is welcome.

I have never heard of them. Do you have a link to their site about turbo upgrades?

I sent my turbos into majestic for a rebuild and got an upgrade also and now my turbos are trying to push 15 lbs. My mechanic says that they'll probably push 17-18 once I get it on a dyno and tuned.

Azaka - how does the power compare to stock? Any seat of the pants comparisons/etc? Why did you go with Majestic?

I went with Majestic because my mechanic reccomended them and he has done lots of business with them. I can't really tell you about the power difference because my original turbos never worked in the first place, they would only boost 4 lbs. I need tuning bad so I can run them past 10 lbs.

i had a very very bad experience with them. the employees are courteous, but apparenlty hitachi cores are unique. i think you should take a look at BNR since they seem to specialize in the upgrades.
