It's time for prices to come down.

Price isnt everything with these turbos....plus VTT 700whp twins are $2500 tight now. Or $3300 for us Canadians that get raped on exchange. Either way $500 US wouldnt sway me much at all. I think the new VTT's seem to be the best ones. But then again $1999 from FT is nice a number.

Do you not need "bits" with the Frankens? Does Frankens include all the bits for 2k? Thats a great deal if so.

You can't compare frankenturbo to GCs, RB Evos, or MMPs. The frankenturbo still use a TD03 CHRA vs a TD04 from the others.

The franks are no doubt a good value opportunity if replacing stock turbos and not trying to put high HP, but for the 600+ crowd with any kind of longevity I would definitely go with a TD04.

I would find a friend in the states! There are a lot of stage ones out there in the 15-17 hundred range that have a ton of reviews out there. In fact, there is a identical set on eBay that are rated for 700hp. What's mesmerizing about this, it's using a cast manifold, tdo4 chra and a like 14T wheel. No other info, but 17hundred obo!
