The T04 is a T04B made by Borg Warner. From my understanding, a quality turbo. I ended up sending it back and going with the larger setup (KKK). I am just waiting on that turbo and downpipe to come back to me.

The guys name is Patrick, and he is a member here: avatar is widebody2. However, I spoke to him the other day and his computer is down, so he has not been on the forum too much recently.

In terms of quality, I think it is pretty good. I will take a good look at the manifold tonight and I will take pics. I have everything except the turbo and downpipe, so I am anxiously awaiting them...

I do NOT think Patrick is out to screw anybody, so I would say give him a call (PM if you want his number) and see if you are interested.

I would also like to know if his horsepower numbers about that X60 kit is true. I got nothing going against the guy. its just that its hard to believe since its a turbo ive not heard before! and from the pictures it looks smaller than a T78. and 520hp @19lbs kinda hard to believe but i maybe wrong, thats y im replying on here.
just waiting on more people to respond to this forum for more opinions!

Hey guys...first time on here in forever. Anyway forget about the smaller kit...I'm not doing that one anymore and actually I'm way to busy with work right now to do any kits for a while. Charlie your turbo FINALLY came in....that was a super long wait. Sorry about that.

Ari at RP did 620 rwhp a few years ago on a stock Mazda reman running 26 psi of boost and nitrous and then raced it for an entire season without blowing it up. It's not impossible but certainly something you don't see everyday.

If I recall my conversation with Patrick correctly, those numbers were not from his car, but a friends. I don't believe it was stock, but I could be mistaken. Patrick (widebody2) would have to chime in to give you the specifics.

Don't buy anything from this guy! He's a rip off. And a low life! PATRICK...When are you going to replace the bullshit parts you sent with my kit?
BTW...since I've posted my problem with this guy on the goodguy/badguy section, he still has not responded to any of it.

F-You piece of **** loser!

his turbo is a KKK the one from SR motorsports. But as i was doing some research i noticed that the turbo is a little laggy BUT its eqivilant (as for horsepower) to a Turbonetics-72

as they stated I dont think hes trying to rip anyone off. but to get a turbo from this guy requires alot of begging & reminding that i dont have time for. Other than that its a mysterious (sr Motorsports) turbo that seems to make power but lags like hell. CHeck out the thread i made where the powerband doesnt start to raise till 4500-5000K.

Later
