How about the Turbonetics TNX 122.... 122 MM compressor with all billet bearing housing...


115 and 122mm! Yes, you read it correctly. The “X”means billet parts and lots of them. Soon to be released, Turbonetics engineering team has created a monster turbocharger for the best-of-the-best crowd! Larger and heavy duty version of the patented Ceramic Ball Bearing is nestled in a billet-machined bearing housing for an absolutely astounding 2600 lbs. of thrust capacity!

The billet-machined bearing housing also features an oil-feed system that’s strategically located for maximum oil cooling. The HP-122 compressor wheel is a precise billet-machined unit that can boost 80+ psi.

And no its not for a diesel.

Well, hard to tell much about the engine just from that shot. I'll take a stab anyway... looking at the belt tensioner and the front of the engine, also that it is a big single placed right up front, I'm going to say that it's a domestic car. Prolly a mustang.

on second thought.....it might be a 5.4 4valve motor. I was just looking at the pic again, and you can see where the water crossover pipe has been lengthened....which would make sense if they used the coolant pipes from a 4.6 and then had to make mods to fit the taller and wider 5.4 block.

Considering each of those turbos is good to well over 1500hp......................he must be barely tapping the potential of that thing.

Wouldn't a TN kit that big just be that much more fail given their track record?
