Anymore info on the Phat Bastard Killer? Who builds it?
The S510 with an ET-R 94mm wheel will be around the same price point indeed.
Which one will move more air?
Which would you recommend?

Gillett Diesel builds it , 100mm comp wheel , 108 mm exducer on the turbine side, clipped turbine wheel and tight A/R , 360 deg thrusts , and bigger main shaft than a GT55 . The best part about this turbo is its spools real good for the size , I can get 5psi out of it on the line while total boost is around 15-20 , probably spools 2-3 times faster than my S510 did . turbo paired with a S475 has made almost 1200 track proven hp on fuel at a DA of 7k on my truck and similar #'s on another truck up in canada , both trapping around 144-145 in the 1/4 mile .

Does the GT55 compressor side move as much air as the ET-R wheel, or should I be looking into a hybrid with the ET-R wheel on the GT55?
i have heard the gt55 ball bearing is not serviceable and expect a wait if it does need to be repaired.whats the story.
Trent can you send me a PM as to how much that unit is worth?
I drive mine daily and tow 9000# 5 days a week with my 472/595 twins. i am running the 1.15 on my 95 and a .90 on the 72. drive pressure is 1 to 1 up to 95#. i have been running this setup for about a year now.
I just talked to Steve @ Gillett Diesel, here are the specs he gave me on the
Phat Bastard Killer: 98/141()108ex, 1.0 housing, based off a GT series turbo(larger than GT55) cast wheels. $2700
That is a GT98 F-trim. We carry those as well.....good bit cheaper also. We build those units up to 115mm Billet wheeled compressors for the S/F tractors. Work awesome indeed...but they will spool a good bit slower then a GT55....alot more weight in the rotating mass.
Price?
