Just so you can see the difference next to a stock turbo.

I ordered mine over 2 months ago now and still have no idea when I will FINALY recive it. You might want to order now if you want it by Xmass.

I am currently exploring the "bolt on" turbo market and would like to see how this turbo matches up?

I think the tec turbo are made from mitsu turbos? right? well if they are then they are not ball bearing turbos. They look like bolt on turbos. They would need to come with all the lines and flanges needed though.

I have also been also been exploring the world of bolt on turbos. I have looked at TEC, dead bolt, AVO, slow boy, APS, and IHI turbos. I like the IDEA of ball bearing but they seam to be harder to tune for some reasion. people seam to have real consistant results with the TD06 though. Also they are capable making 400+ WHP and you wouldnt want to go much above that on stock internals.
