Get ahold of bison
62mm is enough turbo to get you there and it hits very hard. Why are you set on ball bearing?
With the right engine/turbo combo, converter and tune the difference between the 2 styles would be hardly noticed. Get Bison your complete mods and let him choose the right turbo and converter for your goals.
Cheaper and is run on all oem vehicles. Don't fall for the free wheel comparisons on youtube of both styles off the car. Journal bearing is designed to be spun on a thin layer of oil. Free wheel test needs to be done with 50psi of 180* oil feeding both turbo's otherwise the test is pointless.Can you name an advantage a journal bearing turbo would have mechanically?
I have a 71 HPQ DBB I might be willing to part with . I also have a 6567 JB that is getting rebuilt by reed at Work turbos
I might have what you are looking for. PM
I have a 6767 turbo that I was going to put on my sons car . But I think its a little to much for him at first. looking for a TA49 or a TE44 to start with. I would like to get 650.00 for it. Recently rebuilt.
do you have a number that I can text some pic's to.This seems reasonable. Could I get some more info on it? Manufacturer, billet/cast, journal or ball bearing, etc.?
