Hey that turbo looks familiar .

BTW, did you order it with the 4 bolt downpipe flange or did you order it with the V-band clamp and ended up getting the 4 bolt instead. I ordered mine with the v-band and got the 4 bolt. Supposedly PTE has run out of v-band housings for the 88+ turbos.

Jordan or Jose could either one of you possibly take off your exhaust housing and measure the inducer and/or the major diameter of the turbine wheel?

i'm trying to find out if the turbine wheel on my industrial sized 76 is similar/larger/smaller in size to the turbine in the PTE88, i have this feeling it *might* be the same

Thanks a lot!

Jordan, I got one from PTE, you may want to check and see if they have another one. They are going to send it to me this week and I'll just send the 4 bolt back. They claim it will be a few months before they have the V-band housings again for the 88+ turbos

I can't wait to see the set up , and results.


1. How long will it be before it's ready to drive?



2. I thought I saw on your company page that your old set up is in a Trans Am . Can you give deatails , as to whether the motor is stock or not, and when you get them , the resutls? I was just wondering what that kit will put down with the T76.



3. Last, is your setup going on the dyno, and where do you think that turbo will begin to make , and have full boost.





I don't know what ET it runs, but i looks like you will have one of the only daily drivers at the track that might get kicked out for no parachute.
