That is a VERY hard to find turbo, I was told that is a custom assemblied unit ( did you get it from Nate at DI?) I would think it would be a great single (depending what AR it has)

61mm inducer is a bit small isn't it?? I've heard to move the air we need on something like that you need a ~63mm inducer??
That's why I stick with "typical" turbos for me...They work well, and I can't figure out what else I could use

You need to call Diesel Innovations and talk to nate he ran one (gt40r )
Signature 600 if you stay with the typical you will never get on top .
and the GT42 with the 1.01 is very nice for a big single it was a big difference compared to the 1.28

But I have enough turbo's sitting here I think I can find some combo that works good for me. Dodgezilla, HX40-16, S300(62/.7), GT4294, and a B2.
One of these days, I'll get to where you guys are

I don't know about all that...I just can't bring myself to strap on a blue helper. Give it time!!!
I think I'll do the comparing of turbos, thank you I've had enough different one now, I think I'm qualified

All right would it (42) make a good street turbo NO it is just abit to laggy
( not for a 1300cfm turbo though) , but it makes for a wicked pullin turbo ,if I had a stick I would be in heaven and would run the 1.44 AR.
At the pull today it spooled good and ignited my tires( no NOS pullin) to 4500rpm in drive right to the spinout it was a dry track but still had smoke rolling off the rubber.I will give it a couple more hooks and then decide if I love it . GOD it would be a crazy bad stickk turbo.
