They are top notch. Ive used them a couple of times for DSMs, and have had no trouble with them (product wise and customer service wise).

That is what I am trying to find out... I know that the wheel is different, but not sure if they are just machining the housing or if it is a completely new piece.

the greddy exhaust housings are pretty small; i wonder if that is what is limiting people from making power at elevated rpm levels.

The housing is machined to accept the Td06 turbine, so it is larger on both the comp and turbine side.

is the housing itself changed to a larger housing? it sounds like thaey just machine the td05 housing to fit the td06 wheel in there? wouldn't that make the A/R ratio of the exhaust housing even lower? (bigger wheel in the same sized casting)

I know where you are going with this, and that is one of the answers I am trying to find out...

What I do know is the only thing that they reuse is the center cartridge. This is the same turbo upgrade that they offered on the 300ZX TT cars for years They just happen to be the same dimentions to fit with the 350 kit as well. According to SGP these turbos are on over 60 cars (300s and 350s) and only 1 failure that he knows of.

They use a HO 20G compressor wheel, a 'secret' Garrett turbine wheel. bigger dia shaft, racing spec bearings and seals. Sounds like they machine the housings to fit, but not sure what that consists of. If they are changing to a Garrett wheel then I would think that they have to machine the housing accordingly to match that.

If you do want the turbos done this is the place that does them for SGP and several other places:

Forced has a great rep with the DSM crowd....that would be a good place to check out. However, I heard that their leadtime is terrible on turbo rebuilds...depending on what you want done.

Part of the issue with rebuilds, was the leadtime. Apparently, the td06 wheels are extremly hard to find in stock.

Just checked out the site and noticed their tweaked version of a Garrett GT3582R.

http://store.forcedperformance.net/m...Code=FP3582HTA

The performance gains being claimed over a standard GT3582R are substantial. It almost sounds too good to be true. I wish I could trust the dyno charts they have posted, but after the Kinetix SSV fiasco, I'm always skeptical of any dyno sheets a company posts for their own product(s).

It sounds like Forced Performance has a good reputation, based on what Sharif and a couple of you posted. So, can any of you vouch for the performance claims being made by them. Does anyone have any personal experience with their GT35R turbo?

The reason I ask is because I'm thinking about doing a custom build with GT35R's for my G in the future. If this product is as good as claimed, I will definitely go with it over a standard Garrett GT35R.

Thanks.

Oh yes. I plan on doing a fully built long block. As you can see in my sig, I want to do a 4.2L stroker. Due to my location in AZ, I'm thinking a GTM Stage 4 long block or having Intense Motorsports build my motor with all the goodies.

Jeremy, do you have any experience with Forced Performance turbos or know anything about their version of the GT35R?
