It doesn't help that even Full-Race spreads the misinformation (unless i'm mistaken): BorgWarner S200SX FMW 7670 Turbo - Full-Race.com

Sorry to derail the thread...

They've been doing that mis-nomer marketing since 2004.




I remember the day it came on their site, so they could sell their overly large BWs that they received. This is long before they had their EFR contracts.

This turbo might be for a semi tractor, but it has [twin scroll/ billet/ ball bearing]! Pick the marketing buzzword of the week and paste that **** everywhere

The speed factory and obx manifolds are not divided hence the design

Doesn't matter about the manifold/turbine flange mating. Response is poor due to turbo size mismatch.. What you're using as a turbo is probably pretty damn big.
