Just upgrade your converter to a 3400-3500 and no ball bearings required. A re-stall is cheaper than the ball bearing upgrade. My car cuts 1.5 60's on drag radials with a completely stock susp. and has plenty of power to blow the drag radials away. My 86T would cut mid 1.4 60's on 28X9 slicks and if you lauched with too much boost it would spin the slicks. A 3400-3500 stall in a Buick drives great, mine feels just like a stocker under normal street driving. Ball bearing turbos are pretty new to turbo Buicks and many have gone fast over the last 20 years without them.
p-67 bb or 45a turbo

I can do that i got 1 free restall from precision. Trans and motor are already sitting out of the car now at the shop. Might as well send the header off and be ceramic coated

Don't forget about John Crawford's GN from Canada.
With a PT6776R, I believe his best last year was 10.35 @ 130. Maybe he will post up in here. Hope this wasn't Top Secret Info John, but I do believe, you're the man right now with the BB version of this turbo. Man your car looks awesome! Stealthy but mean at the same time.

John isn't much of one to brag, but I thought I would post a more recent picture of his car.
I was there when the car did those runs. And it didn't look like it worked too hard to do it.
Runs were made with Pump Gas and Alky.......
Just cuz' you never hear of the fast cars every 2nd post doesn't mean they aren't out there....

I agree the 45a does have a big sweet spot but with your stall it might spool slow. Check these out Turbonetics | Compressor Maps Turbocharger & Turbocharger Compressor Calculations
Call Jack he knows a lot about BB turbos.
Let us know what you go with and how its working.

What does a 300rwhp Supra and a 1200rwhp Supra have in common? They both run 12's. Things cant hook for crap. But in terms of engineering and manufacturing quality, they're hard to beat. Beautiful fit and finish and a stock block that can handle 1000hp. But they're so damn expensive!
Everywhere Ive looked, the 45a seems like a killer turbo. Keep in mind that for the street, a little lag is a good thing. Also, which has less friction? A shaft riding on oil, or a ball bearing? Seems like they would be pretty close. If I ever had the money, I would get the 45 with a 3000 stall and an RJC bleeder.

thats funny the 6pds cant hook because of the power but race auto supra.I love buicks but my supra pound for pound is faster at less money and a with stock block.Ask the vipra clubs that come to our track meets with there v10 and leave upset.
