pettit hybrid twins

How are these? Anyone here running them? How is lag and response compared to stocks?

I could not find much info on them, so any information would be very appreciated.

They should be! I think they're a lot more money. Also, I'm pretty sure they're completely redesigned turbos, whereas the Pettits are just stockers with some porting and different compressor wheels. Right? At least that's what they used to be...

i have three sets of turbos, one of the being the pettit one, there is absolutely little to no difference from stock, all they do is grind on the exhaust manifold a bit and grind on the compressor housings....not worth the $$
