Well, I had poor luck. Blew two of them up within the warranty period, and when I received the replacement for the second, I sold it without ever installing it and went to my HTB2. I never beat on it.

I was running Mach 2's at that time. It spooled ok, and overall, I liked it, but with two strikes and no *****.......

What broke on the turbo? The shaft or ball bearing?

I bought one. I live in ogden so I just went right to edge and payed cash and picked it up. It is brand new in the box and it comes with the down pipe. I like it so far. I have the fueling that is in my sig and it seems to clean it up pretty good. As far as the sound... It sounds like a jet going down the road. Spool up is a little slower than stock, but still pretty quick. I am making around 45 pounds with it. The compressor wheel measures just a shade under 59mm and the exhaust is around 70mm. They get a bad rap cause they had problems early, but the thing is a turbonetics stage 1 except it has edge engraved in the compressor housing. It comes with a 1 year no questions asked warranty so for the price and having a stock turbo on my truck I figured what the hell I will get it. So far I love it, but time will tell.

i bought mine when they had just fixed the blow up problem and it was 1400 bucks. for the price i paid there are much better turbos,but for 500 bucks its a great turbo. i want to run twins with mine i hear they are a killer on a twin setup. it will get hot with the hrvp44 and 125hp injectors. but still a awesome daily driver. i think it would be perfect for rollerink... hint hint

I thought the T58, Stage 1 had a 58mm compressor, 65mm turbine, and a .70 a/r housing? If that's the case, then an Edge Jammer BB is larger on the turbine side than a T-netics Stage 1? That doesn't make sense.

Is this turbo comparable to a BD Super B?

The turbo is a Turbonetics, Edge no longer markets the BB jammer.
Its a T-58 compressor ( 58.4 mm inducer) with a 68mm 10blade Q-trim turbine. The turbine housing is .84 A/R something like a 15cm 4" V-Band
Its non-wastegated. The turbo is in the same power area as an HX40, but more robust and slightly quicker spooling.
It has a mass flow of around 60 lbs/min, with a peak pressure ratio of 3.8
