Ordered new turbo today

[T- Type Tim]

Finally..... my orginal goal was to get a precision 6152 standard bearing. I ended up with a turbonetics 61 stage 5 ball bearing, I can't wait to try this thing out! Should do a little better than my old school 44:smile:

That Turbo is nice. If your using a stock converter w stock heads spool is ok but up top that thing pulls. i was very impressed w it... enjoy it.

thanks for the input , I'm going to see how this 12" 3000 works with it , if it needs more, its just a great excuse to go to a 10".... no wonder I have my credit card # memorized

what's with the diamond shaped plate with two bolts on the exhaust side?

It's for an external wastegate.

All Turbonetics 3 bolt turbos have this.
It as a flange for a delta gate.
They made a down pipe too many moons ago.

I just ordered one yesterday and have a 3200, 10". Mine was an upgrade from a TA49.

So what do you think of it so far?
