It was kind of a impluse buy but I went with the SBR G60 external gate. Anyone running it I found a few people when I searched but didnt see much info. Give me your pros and of course the cons of the turbo.
 
The next time you should ask about the turbo before you buy it. Why do you think it is the wrong turbo? Because no one using it responded to your question? That isn't a very good reason. Not very many people run this turbo because they don't like dealing with the company that makes it. There have been people who were happy with this turbo. It is far from the best turbo in its class, but it is also probably the one of the cheapest. Bolt it on and find out. Or you could do what a lot of noobs do and buy 5 turbos on impulse and sell them all in the classified ads for half of what you paid for them before you find the turbo you are looking for.
 
People have their issues with SBR, but I have had good service from them thus far. Also, as stated above, you're not going to find a turbo with the size of this thing at the cost. Whether or not it's going to be reliable, but I bought the same thing; SBR G60 with the 4" Compressor Cover.

First impressions from looking and picking it up- impressive to say the least. Thing thing looks ALMOST as bad ass as my buddy's FP3575... how will it measure up? Only time will tell with track time. I'm almost done building my car... just some wiring and little things to finish up. Hopefully it turns out to be the beast I want it to be. :thumb:
 
the G60 is nice ive been running it for about 6 months now at around 28psi ive had no issues and ive had no issues with SBR ive spent over 5,000 with them ive always talked to Joe Ext 19 never gave me a prob oct 12th im gunna take it to the track and see what the turbo is really made of 30+ psi with meth ill let you know the results also im running the turbo ext wastegate on a tial 38mm
