I keep seeing a lot of posts about all these modified stock Holset turbos and how a lot of people love them, but also hear about how a lot of people have failures with them. I decided to show a comparison of the difference between a HX/HE Holset shaft and it’s bearings compared to a Industrial PhatShaft unit that we use in our turbos that are also a direct replacement turbo. As you can see the PhatShaft shafts and bearings we use are much much larger and stronger. You also get a dual groove oil bearing and heavy duty sintered steel 360* thrust rather than a cheaper brass one. The reason a lot of these modified factory Holset turbos fail is pretty evident in the pictures. Hopefully this will help people make a better decision when selecting their next turbo.
