Turbo suppliers

OmahaDZL · 03-19-2016, 03:00 PM

Hey guys,
I may or may not be in the market for new turbos (waiting for the mechanic to verify). I figure if Ive got to replace them, I just as well spend a LITTLE more and put in bigger, more capable turbos....so Im probably going to begin a stage 3 build.

I have gotten quotes from 2 of our very devoted and appreciated suppliers on our board. Let me first say that BOTH are very responsive, very friendly and appreciated. When I bought my car 3-4 years ago, there wasnt a lot out there in the area of serious tuning, but that has come around in no small part due to folks like Bob at BPC and Jarek.

But Im left a little confused.... There is a very large pricing difference between the turbos. Obviously they are sourced from different suppliers...however...Is there really a $1500 (50% more) quality difference in the turbos. Im not going to come out and post the quotes, you can figure it out if you want....

But I will ask this question....has anyone had any issues with the hybrid turbos from EITHER supplier? Thank you.

Bohl beats all their prices and you'll get bigger turbos!
