Thanks to this thread http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/turbo-system-tech/344931-whats-deal-pte-360-thrust-plates.html Now i'm concerned of my SCM6152E I have worked on this "track" car a lot of years and now that i'm ready to boost and dyno, i'm depressed to do it. Is a brand new turbocharger

How many pulls or miles are going to last? My goal 400~480whp

What other turbo is similar to the 6152E? HX35?

My old Talon had no issues with the SCM61 for years of DD and track abuse. Just run it, and if it blows, replace it.

+1. No need to worry about something that hasn't happened yet.

All you can do is oil it according to what PTE recommends and hope it lasts. The best thing you can do to prevent the thrust washer failure is use a high-ZDDP oil or use a zinc additive in whatever off-the-shelf oil you're running.

Ok thanks... what other turbo i could consider? seems the HX35 Holset is good enough.
