You dont even need a Ball Bearing turbo for 500whp. I mean the ball bearing feature IMO isnt worth the money cause on testing that ive seen it only gained at most 300-400Rpm spool difference if that. I just dont justify the price increase for such a small difference IMO.

i would look at the Precision SC61 with stg5 rear wheel in a .82a/r housing.

That turbo is capable of well over 500whp and you will save enough by going that route to buy yourself injectors and pay for some tuning :)
 
But the price of PTE SC61 and a good T3 manifold like DNP with tail 40 WG flanged is around $1400 and this without including the O2 housing. Whereas the bolt on GT35R price is about $1500 and I already have FP 3" SS O2 housing for the Green turbo.

Also the reliability of the seal of the PTE BB CHRA is MUCH better than the PTE SCM and SC.... I'm I right :confused:
