Default Turbonetis 122mm turbo!!!

Found this interesting on another site.

Turbonetics Releases New 122mm Billet Turbo - we call it the "Baby Killer"

When you think the world of turbos for automotive use is at their biggest, we all get surprised again. Turbonetics has released their new TNX-122, 122 MM turbo. The kit is designed for top tier racing, such as, Pro Mods and really for diesel sled pulling competitions. “Diesels go for the most amount of boost you can possibly fit in an engine”, says Turbonetics Marketing Manager, Tyler Tanaka.

Compared against a Turbonetics T3 turbo



The turbo is capable of producing over 2500 horsepower, while supporting 50-60 PSI. The center section is an all-new billet piece. It allows Turbonetics to build a stronger internal bearing with a new, patented oiling system. Also, the compressor wheel is made from a billet 713C super-alloy. “When you run this much boost on a cast wheel, it can expand from the center and explode.” Tyler remarked. Regardless, make sure small animals are not present while in operation.

I think that was on display at the T-netics booth at PRI. I didn't get a good look at it though. I was to busy checking out Andy Jensen's Camaro.

This was at SEMA. It is huge. There is one tractor that is putting on 2 of them. There are also a few people in the LSX world that want them when they come out.

At SEMA I believe they were throwing around some almost 9000 dollar amount as being the list pricing. Obviously as it actually comes available, the price will be much less but still going to cost a pretty penny.

Andy should buy one to replace the 106mm on that Camaro. As if it's not fast enough already, haha!
