at 2099 is that a genuine Garrett piece or Chinese version ? 360 deg thrust upgrade ? clipped wheel ? if so that's a dang good price because i know what it cost to build one .

Does anyone have a pic or size dem of a GT98 or PBK? I just need an idea of what kind of size we are talking here.
Jepling, is that the comp cover that came with it, or something you had to get extra? With the 90* going backwards towards the exhaust side of the turbo... Also I cant see your a/c dryer, did you have to remove it, or maybe I just cant see it in the pic?

Garrett. We build/CNC only OE parts from castings. Clipped wheel is standard from Garrett. As for 360 thrust...it can be added though not necessary, as all GT's use 270 deg thrust (GT42, GT45, GT47, GT55...etc)

That is the cover that came on it , had the 90 tig d on it along with the 90 on the intake of the 400, that picture was taken before i got everything complete ,i had to move the dryer over a few inches to clear the down pipe.

Doubt they would sell chinese knock offs man:bang
Theres quite a difference in spool between the GT98 F-trim and the GT5533. For most diesel guys, the GT55 is plenty.
Agreed. Only our wild customers order the big thumpers. We have a few twin guys though running the GT106's .....so they are out there. :Cheer:
GT55 spools faster, much better throttle response with it, and very few people can exceed what a GT55-94 can put out.

Its was not a dig towards them , i have a great deal of respect for Forced Inductions , and have heard alot of good things about them , just an honest question .
GT55 is the best mix of spool and power....period. As for pricing...send us a PM. We can get you taken care of, but there are several options for the GT55's we now CNC and offer.

Hopefully this worked, because if it did, this will show you trent nells work on my dodge with a 72mm and the PBK, its ones of the best custom kits i have ever seen and should be pretty insane once its dialed in.

subscribed. looking to put something under my s468 in the future.
well i went with a 84mm on the bottom- (for now ..... until $$$$ gets built up)
specs-
Comp in ~ 84mm
comp ex ~ 117mm
turbine ex ~ 97mm
turbine in ~ 108mm
t6 nondivided free float 1.23a/r
now a question about the GT55.......which is better? Ball Bearing vs Journal...... i would think the bb would spool faster/ takes less oil feed/ the bb are stronger- takes more of a load
BUT is it worth $1400 more (roughly)

99.9% of the time......no, the journal bearing version can and will take almost anything you can throw at it. Most of our GT55 customers running the 94mm and even larger 98mm version are all journal bearing. :charger:

Your current bottom turbo specs sound awfully close to an HT4B. I noticed your bottom turbo spins the traditional direction so it's definitely not an HT4B. How well do you like the setup?
