I do think that the compressor is very big for a stage 3 turbine wheel, thats why i am planing to upgrade it to a P-trim soon.


The stage 5 wheel will out perform the ptrim... I know that for fact bagato A lot better spoolup and for 30 lbs less its a better match for your Master power turbo

Regarding to this turbos.. I have seen millions of this turbos in any configuration.. in fact they are garrett units , almost everytruck here uses them.. in performance aplication they work just ok ... the important thing here its the lubrication you must know the oil pressure to make the ideal oil restrictor.
Only the later Mp are not having probs the big prob with them was the axis the tend to break but now the new models do not.
Cheers.

I could not find any stage 5 wheel from MP, this turbo has a stage 3 wheel. I am very open to suggestions on which wheel I should get to upgrade this turbo, since I want it to be more efficient per each PSI I put on it, without affecting the spoolup time, I feel with a better matched turbine wheel I can get even better spool due to the large compressor, since it is as big as a GT35R compressor.

These are the current specs on the turbo that Johnny Wangwang and my self got:



And here is the list of housings and wheels offered by MP (not too many options really):

The website I looked at has the turbo rated at 500-550whp. (third one from the bottom)
MASTER POWER - Borghetti Turbos e Sistemas Automotivos Ltda.

Guys honestly I could care less about the opinions of the turbo or your opinion of the turbo lol. I posted this just to show my new turbo and see if I could find a manny for it. If you havent noticed I run turbos that I like and have done alot of research on. I dont care what you run or think is better! Duh! This car wont be a daily driver it will be a track car that gets driven on the street sometimes!

Im just hoping Ill see my 500whp with this! I fondle this turbo daily! Cool thing is that MP actually gives you the gasket for both the inlet exhaust and the oulet exhaust and even gives you the bolts for the 4 bolt outlet

CA18- even journal bearing turbos need a restrictor if you have high oil pressure or the oil will eventually blow past the seals and smoke.

Anyways I manifold and downpipe will run you around 1100+ for EQ tubular. And I believe $700+ for a log which probably wouldnt be a good idea on the VE motor with a big turbo like that.

$1100 sounds pretty ****ing good for the turbo and downpipe! The log manifold is out. I want tubular! Ill hit him up when I get time and see!
