Lol I guess for a s300 just the turbine housing. I had one back in 2011 and like an idiot sold it. I know they had some issues that were found out later on but would still like to find one if possible. I mean as many as were out there someone has to still have one laying around back shelf or as door stop lol. Thanks
 
Sorry I started to give up on anyone knowing what I was talking about bout it's been a few years since they've been around and mainstream.

That's how I feel about the super b special. Would love to have one of the old school turbos to play with.

Yea, I've got an old turbonetics Y2K that i picked up at a swap meet when i was stationed in socal that's been sitting in my barn since 2009. I always wanted to do something with it just never got around to it.
 
I have a 13cm 71 tw stainless htt housing and I believe i know where a 16cm 71 one is as well. No 68's :(
They are still pretty cool. Never ran it, but I grabbed for sentimental reasons as I always wanted one. I will double check the 16cm tw spec though

Lol lucky, I've been looking for almost 3 months. I've been on 3 different Facebook pages, here Cummins forum, and tdr. The 71 is the older clipped wheel isn't it? Your one of 3 that's even really known what I was talking about let alone have one. I loved it back when I had one shouldn't of gotten rid of it. But sold it for I think it was a killer b2 64/65 .8 but had lots of surge, just had a stock truck then. Mainly I just want to experiment with one. I have ddp 60%s now, either try it on my 63/480 setup or i have also have sxe64/73 single. Or even a 65mm I can turn it to 68 or 73.

I'm pretty sure you can still get a SPS64; same thing(64/71/14). I never had any luck with the 71mm turbine on any compressor wheel combination. It actually seemed to be too "free flowing" for a VP.

I guess I figured those were different somehow even though the numbers match. Or maybe I got too hung up on threads like bponci’s and such. Just seems I never heard anything about the SPS but tons on the Special.

Yes. From what I understand, a 71 and 73.4 turbine share a similar profile but the 71 is "clipped" to size, its either the 73 or 74 turbine. I can not recall which. Now, I can not say its worth having other than the fact it is cool. Although I do like the in between size between a 12 and 14. It made a very good selling point. Marketing or being marketable seems key in success..
I have had great luck with 71 turbines in mid and large housings. I modded a few into small housings.. with hit or miss success. I have quite a few of the 71 tw's still. I am scheduled for some dyno testing on turbine wheels. 71 vs 73.4 and a g40 ish looking 9 blade. Currently working on patching together a shaft speed sensor into my OneGauge data logger. I do not expect to find anything remarkable doing this. But why not.

Pretty sure I remember the main selling point being the in-between size and the fact the waste gate was already pretty big but you can drill out the newer ones, and I believe the issues they had were the waste gate arm warping. You realize that your gonna do some testing and it's gonna somehow surprise ppl and their gonna be worth their weight in gold lol, how it always works. I mean I doubt be very much difference but still. Like I said I just want one to try it out and just have something different maybe little unique cause their not available anymore. I got a friend that does hotrods and rats and he's crazy bout flatheads has probably 25-30 different motors from stock to a supercharged "supposedly from an old plane" I believe 330ci fully balanced blueprinted one in a 32 Ford.

waste gates on these in general have issues. many of the castings over the last 5-6 years the waste gate pucks break off.
