Parts for the AF61R are very very very easy to find.

sure they are. only problem is you don't know what the hell is in there, so you don't know what to buy.

I had a long reply typed up as to your "posting bogus numbers" and in general straight up lies (anyone remember a certain someone saying the AF61 was a "special turbo" that GARRETT modifies?
). You are the king of it bullshit, but to keep this thread civil and on topic I'll refrain from posting the complete bullshit you have posted in the past (good thing for your sake a lot of those post got deleted, but there’s plenty of readers here who won't forget it). So if you have anything else to say to me be it another insult or whatever (though I haven’t a thing to say to you), PM me and keep this thread from turning into garbage.
I’m sure the temptation will be too great for you NOT to post an ego induced idiotic reply, so I'll let you have the last word and wont respond to it on this thread as to not ruin PhatManBuds post.

YES, granted all other things in your set up are optimal and tuned well.

BUD- I can't speak specifically on the T61. But there is an awesome database that has compiled a bunch of turbos with dyno graphs. I can't find the site but you might want to look there.
Ultimatley when choosing my turbo I looked at the most hp that I would ever want. It was 500. So granted for the price the AF61 was the best bang for my buck. Look at the max hp that you want and then size accordingly. Spool and all the other small attributes will fall in line after you choose.
From what people are asying the T61 sounds like a good turbo.
Anyone have a link?

btw, I have yet to knock the AF61, just the way it was untruthfully marketed at first (thats putting it politley, more like flat out lies about the turbo). FWIW, it is a good bang for the buck, its just too bad it was shrouded in BS when released.

I deleted his PM, however I believe he said around 450hp (or was it 475hp?) @ 20PSI.

Lets put it to rest! check with people whom have used both units and make your own choice...and not give in to the preverbial "sheepish"comments.
Anyway, who in the hell are you to critique the af61 when you have only 1 ******* idiotic jackass saying its a straight s300.. thats like saying because your vehicle has 4 tires its a car! i have not sold 1 unit that hadn't met it's expectations!
..... you notice how the negatice speaking morons keep feeding from others ignorance just because it's declairative!
man, this board if is full of blind haters!
