Re: Ball bearing turbo (tub_sephiroth)
Garrett dual BB GT series turbos are going for about $1400-$1900 now, Turbonetics adds about $500 to the price of any turbo for the BB upgrade. Most are paying about $1200-$1300 or so for the Turbonetics BB but is a single ceramic ball bearing as opposed to Garrett's, Innovative's and Precision's(soon)

3g's? I hope that's not only the turbo. I'm only asking about the turbo, cause that's only what I need. I think it is a Turbonetics.

Re: Ball bearing turbo (PureTeg420)
expensive to rebuild jus tto let you kno...i dont see having bb turbos on street cars make that much of a difference.. since ive drove a car with bb turbo .. wasnt impressed.. same car and almost same set up...not worth the extra 500/1000 bucks

I'ved talk to a supra TT converted to single turbo that question since he has tried them both he says that he didn't see any big difference with spool and life of the turbo and that well oiled turbo can last, between the two turbos he would rather just spend for the non ball bearing, just based on his experience of both....
oh and about the price my friend baught a ball bearing turbonetics for $1000 new
