The twin scroll is nice for spool... but I can take a precision "Billet" journal bearing and produce almost the same spool.. but gain more whp.. Just a though for everyone out there thinking that the "GT" is the only series that can produce power.. don't get me wrong.. very nice turbos.. but very nice price tags to go along with those series..
I dont even run a turbonetics.... I run a precision.

and yes, the GT's I'll have to agree are way way overrated.

who wants to spend $2000 on a 78mm turbo?
