Thanks again for guiding me in the right direction Shodan!

Good eye! lol and yes sir, it is the silver surfer! Upgrading my turbo components and this was the final piece i needed.

rich7777

It looks like the surfer to me.. I could be wrong though. It looks sick either way.

Edit. we posted ay the same time lol

prsxr88

just recently received a turbo from him. quality is an understatement.

awsome guy to work with

rich7777

I second that and i'm sure others will.

I realize you might have to clock the turbo but do they use any thread lock on those bolts to keep them tight?

kbouchard1092

i was thinking of upgrading to the surfer from my current t3/t4 60 trim....but since the size is similar(Surfer is still bigger, not sure the flow rate but my 60trim is 53/lbs) if i was going to upgrade id prob go with the standard reaper. Then again depends which one comes with the free donuts...that could be the deal breaker ha

rich7777

I'm sure the surfer is 59lbs. Lol about the donut, i never got a voucher saying that i couldn't of used it anyway lol

to be honest I'm not sure any one know?

Free donuts! lol and I just sent him a PM about 2 weeks ago, told him my build, expectations and budget and BAM! Paid the man and go my Silver Surfer.

LOL yup

and I got that from my GF but that would be awesome if he started doing so. lol Either way I'm a happy customer

What can one expect to pay for a nice piece like that? If you don't mind my asking..

I just picked up a GT3000 Predator turbo. Haven't run it yet but I anticipate good numbers.

kbouchard1092

So surfer is 59lbs? hmm little more then i thought. The reaper is what 63lbs? or 66? i dont know why im just not remembering have to wait for shodan too chime in...Im taking about standard .63ar housing on both. standard wheels too nothing upgraded

prsxr88

in for results on the dyno

rich7777

Hold those thoughts, i can't remember if that's correct. If you go on youtube and check his video's out he says in a reply to me what it is in one of them (i can't access it properly of my phone or i'd look)

kbouchard1092

confimred..58-59 surfer... 66-68 for the reaper....so either is a upgrade over my current 53lbs t3/t40e 60 trim. I almost rather opt for the surfer only cause i have enough traction issues as is...it is a street car. RIght now i have my set-up maxed out with what im making. the surfer should get me what im making now with any No2. less Tq tho oviously. But if i got bored i could throw the 35 shot on top of the surfer (like my set-up is now) and that would def bring me into the 550whp range easily prob more like 575. More then ill ever need. Torque would be threw the roof as well, i might run into clutch slipping at that point. thus far it hold up great to the 385ft/lbs. Wont be upgrading for 9 months. seeing how im living in dallas for the next 10 months and my car is garaged at home 30miles outside of boston

I'll post up videos/graphs once I put the new i/c, piping, s300, and the list goes on. I am literally replaced all turbo components and cant wait to install it all!

Its going on a 9.5:1(je pistons eagle rods stock sleeves) ls/gsr head (pnp, super tech ret/springs, gsr cam, 1000cc injectors, 255 walbro).

On the current set up it made 340 @15 psi and thats with what I consider inferior turbo parts, 2.5 dp, cast mani, and on crome.

I want to be around 350-375. No more than that for me... this is my daily driver.

kbouchard1092

i got a daily as well (well summer only) you will get to 350-375 as a walk in the park with that turbo....YOu will have plenty of room to go from there once you get bored with the power.

Im glad you liked it. All of Mac's products are top of the line.

My Reaper flows about 67-68lbs/min. Silver Surfer is still very powerful on a mid size frame.

Here's a vid of the Reaper:

^^^ Awesome video!

Good to know! before I venture over 400whp I want to sleeve my block so that might happen later on this year if I want that much power.. which we all know I will.

He even sent me an email with warranty info, receipt, and terms and conditions. The man is LEGIT to the nines.

racebum

you use copper anti seize on the bolts, not loctite. the temps are too high for loctite to be effective and the whole idea is to prevent the bolts from seizing.

the permatex copper anti seize comes in a nice white little can. like $10 shipped from amazon

^^^ Thanks, I'm in the process of trying to order a DEI blanket and oil lines from B R fittings too. I'll just add that to the list.
