BALL BEARING TURBOS
I KNOW YOU CAN BUY THEM FOR FORDS, BUT DOES ANYBODY MAKE A BALL BEARING TURBO FOR THE CUMMINS YET. I HAVE HAVE TALKED TO A COUPLE OF GUYS AND RODE WITH ONE THAT HAVE THEM ON THEIR POWERSTROKES AND THEY SPOOL UP AWFULLY QUICK.

Re:BALL BEARING TURBOS
Some have tried, and liked the results, others have tried and felt it was a waste of money. To each their own.

That is quick. The one for the Ford works quite well,. and is great at what it does, much better then what we have been using.<br><br>Andrew
