The Super 40 has stronger shafts than the older HX40, and is slightly more efficient. You don't need to worry about breaking a shaft with a 1st Gen though.

The super also has 7 blades and I believe it uses the extended tips also.
The others will have 6 or 8 blades - better than nothing if cheap, otherwise look for a super.
Sometimes you can get a good deal on one that has a 19cm turbine.
My turbo shop said that you need new blades to swap to a 16cm turbine tho.

Don't jump at the first one you see...
I decided what I wanted and kept looking until I found mine.
It was a super but with a 17cm turbine and an HX-50 flange. Bought the turbo for just under $250 delivered then bought an adapter for ~ $75.
It spools quicker than my 18.5cm H1C and really boosts ( check sig ) plus the whistle factor is worth at least 20HP.

I don't think you can openly say where to go to get products (outside of the DTR store) without the post being edited or deleted by a member of the mod/admin team here.

I like my super B it'll push 45psi an I don't even have my pumped bottomed out but I do have some crazy injectors, I pulled them recently while I was doin my nv4500 swap an took them apart to clean them an I counted the holes and I thought I counted 6 but there was 7 so I have no ideal what these things flow but I know I can make head lights dissapear behind me at night lol. It gets alittle hot though I can hit 1400 an higher if I stay into the pedal so I was wondering if any of u guys know if you can upgrade a s300 like you can with a holset by putting on a bigger compressor wheel an housing
