who is running the pettit high flow turbos??

would you rather have the pettit high flow turbos to go with my mod list (and a new radiator and guage set) or the m2 ball bearing twins...Im buying this week...please let me know.

what kind of gains do the high flow set allow?

what kind of boost do they allow for safely?

what would be the differences in the above sets....I have my own assumptions but Im hoping for some input.

thanks so much

go with the M2 units. it may seem like they cost more, but you have the option of selling your stock turbos to offset the price. the M2 twins are also ball bearing, giving virtually NO lag (as i have heard). i havnt seen any amazing hp numbers from the pettit turbos. there are a few people here that have em, and high flow turbos from other places such as SR, and the hp numbers are not so great. (like 360ish). go with the M2 Ball Bearing Turbos.

I definately noticed a seat of the pants difference when I got my Pettit hybrids on. I'd say close to 30rwhp. I bought my set second hand for like $240 shipped (with a badly cracked manifold) they are suppose to have about 20Kmiles on them. They are very strong!! If I had the choice and was buying new, I would go with the M2 units b/c the fact they are ball bearing upgrades. just my .02
