I have the RS49t and the only complaint I have is that it got bearing play before I even installed it. I dunno if Ben would be able to help me with this but becides that I love the iron paper weight hot side from bullseye. The cold side owns, I dunno I might have track numbers soon. So far about 400 miles on it.

This thread is almost a year old. :tease: And if you look at AGP's website www.agpturbo.com, the only turbo that they have listed for sale is the Big T28.
 
I am hitting 25psi at 3500 RPM on the 49t
thought it was a slow spooler???? haha
 
i am really surprised to see the vote going the way it has. PTE has never let us down once. we have had a couple of turbo fails but when compared to how many we have out there the numbers are minimal. It's been my experience that Turbonetics turbos fail much more than the turbo chargers that PTE puts out. That is why we stick to PTE when it comes down to the choice between the two.

has AGP gone over to PTE turbine housings now, i remember reading a lot of them talking about how the PTE housing was an inferior product.

What gear are you in when you hit that?

Slow spooler? thanks to my tune being all outta whack right now, if feel like I have a FP Red, and not a 50 trim. :toobad: :barf:
 
Is agp selling dsm turbos anymore.On their website it looked like they didn't have hardly any showing anymore.I loved my RS49 should have kept it for turboing my 91 fwd .I had the garrett RS49. Know too many guys that have gone thru the T series turbonetics.I dont' trust turbonetics at all. Garett all the way for me.

The only turbo I see AGP selling for DSMs now is the T-28.
 
I'll take an FP Green. PTE has let me down a couple times...for the SC-61.

No offense but Red and a 50-trim is not much of a jump at all.
 
Exactly just showing a t28 on the website.their rs49 and Rs60 non t were great..no complaints from me on my RS49.
 
Umm I think the FP red flows like 65pounds and the FP green or 50 trim is like 50 pounds.That is like a 150 hp jump!!
 
Man i was about 10 seconds away from buying a PTE 50 trim. I think fate delivered this FP Red into my engine bay instead. :)

Just out of curiosity, but why did you go with a red instead of a 3065?
 
i just like too know how this got started they are both good turbos and support the same freaking hp. Who really gives a chit. I have a pte ive got 60k miles on it and no problems. If agp was so good were are they now LOL
