does garret even make a turbo with that name(gt3540)
that sounds more like an HKS name and if so its a pretty pricey turbo

yeah GT is the new version of ball bearing turbos, I think someone called venom or vaportrail sells BB turbos like them.

Apparently they are much better for reliability, power, spooling.. i've never used one but soudns good.

what sort of price does a non ball bearing capable of 700hp cost?

IIRC Garrett makes them for HKS, somebody correct me if I'm wrong.
