Who has the best turbo pricing?

Wow, who would have thought I'd be posting in this forum...

Shopping for a T88 0.96 AR or a Y2K. Is Turbonetics the only source?

From Sound Performance, I haven't heard good things on Turbonetics. They were having a near 50% failure rate so switched to Precision.

I have always heard Cheapturbo.com has very good pricing but I have never used them.

Call your good friends over at Davinci Motorworks. I'm sure they'll give you special pricing. They're a garrett dealer.

Basicly if you call for a price, then one of the forum sponsors should be able to do as well as anyone. Basicly, most will sell for whlesale plus~100.00. I advise against sound, they are very busy, and are ordering from PTE anyway. Pheonix(cheapturbo)/boostlogic/A-Spec ATP all have good pricing, and good customer service, let them know you are calling around, call the guy you want to buy from last. FWIW, a PT67 wholesales around 700.00, I can get a watercooled 67/68 with an ITS cover, and a divided hotside for around 950.00. As an aside, maybe we can get a group buy going, if there are several guys ready to buy NOW, LMK. Carl

Phoenix Turbo AKA "Cheap Turbo" is really competent. Ken the owner is familier with most and has in house fab shop "used to build D1 cars" and can build per request.
They have been very professional with me in several turbo aspects.
Sean and some others may help out also.

GT47 is another option but you'll pay for it. no matter where you go. Might be to big to fit also. Take a look at GT42-76 nobody on here will sell those for a better price than me
