The Mutt turbos were also assembled this way, they went the way of the dinosaur as well.
I think what you are talking about is the PTE DSM housing, or the Bullseye DSM housing, or other similar. All of which are widely accepted as a compromise when seeking full power. Compromise, never been a big fan of it.

Correct i am talking about the PTE DSM housing and i understand its a compromise. My understanding is center housings in your turbos are the same as a PTE turbo, so why couldn't you use the same exhaust housing. If its not possible fine, but i am under the impression it is.
My entire argument is an attempt to make your new ball bearing turbo chargers more affordable to the average DSM'er.
You guys are all about being the best and top of the line (which you are). I just thought it would be nice to see the new BB models offered in a more affordable "bolt-on" version to compete with the PTE turbos.
The new V band housing preforms better then a normal mitsu housing, but not all of us are willing to pay the extra 600 bucks for everything else.
Think of it this way. Normal DSM'er wants a good turbo, they know FP is the best so they are willing to pay a little more (difference in turbo price alone), but since the difference is price is so big (total price) they are almost being forced to another brand.
So if it was possible to fit the new BB turbo's with internal gates and mitsu exhaust housings, i think you could do a lot more business.
