Borg Warner? What are you building, a deisel? The only good thing from Borg Warner is their trannies. I wouldnt waste my money on such filth, stick with the tried and true GARRETT.

I can't agree with you more ! If more people would stick with the proven turbo kits like muugen and nizmo, they would be making huge power gains !

Diesel, you idiot. Heres a lesson in english. Some 25% of the english language is of German origin. In German the pronounced voul comes second. Therefore we have: [Dee-sul] = Diesel.

Borg warner makes fantastic turbos in great variety. BWA is the leading provider of turbos to the automotive industry and has a spotless service record. The freightliner I drive has a Garrett turbo on it(not a borg warner), so you're backwards again.

Were you trying to sound like an ignorant, prejudiced ***? Was it sarcasm? I can't tell.

All your basic racing turbos are from diesel applications. GT42 are from DD's, so are S400's. Its just some companies that engineer new parts for them and make them perform better in a gas application .

I picked mine up from a local business "Area Diesel" for $482 out the door. They had 17 in stock.

They (Jess) also offered to upgrade to an 80MM Inducer and tighter exhaust for another $380. They do everything in house.
