Re: garret or turbonetics (ek4__)
Yes garrett makes a t3/t04b for your set-up, it has the same 4 bolt exhaust collector flange as the turbonetics. I personally like the turbonetics, but garrett is a nice turbo as well. Do a google search online, or check out ebay.

Im a master destributor for both and the main reason i think Turbonetics is worth more is because it comes with a full 1 year warranty, no hassle. If your garrett goes, your stuck buying a whole new turbo.There also vey diffrent as far as actual performance. Garrett turbos hit very hard when they come in, turbonetics make just as much if not more power, but have a more linear feel to them. It mainly depends on reliability and what kind of driving youll be doing.

so are you saying that ALL turbonetics turbos are ball bearing?
