your all so stupid why are you fighting over this stupid shit?? why don't you just wait for the part to come out and then talk shit about it. when it comes out we will all know who's right and who's wrong and we will know all the facts about it. talking shit before any thing is out is so stupid.
ASR you don't have to say anything until the kit is released. ignore these idiots

Wow! Took you a whole two days of research on the internet to come up with a rebuttal? Yeah, you're someone these members should believe or trust. It's obvious you chose to follow a path that let's everyone further know, your lack of maturity and integrity. As I said before, until you're ready to discuss things in an adult and mature fashion, you will be dis-regarded. |

It's not hard to answer. Everyone who doesn't understand, should go back and read all our previous posts. These questions are very repetative. We've stated numerous amounts of times that it is not a shelf stock Garrett CHRA. |

I think its just the vagueness of the term "custom" that is driving some people nuts and instead of asking constructive questions they are flying off the handle and seem to be attacking you. As mentioned above, hybrids could be made from Garrett with several off the shelf components to make up a complete centersection that is not considered to be "off the shelf" and now in turn "custom". So in that sense, everyone is right. You have the right to keep whatever you want to proprietary though, so do as you must (ignore, whatever)... but here is what I think they are attempting to ask of you:
1) What compressor wheel are you using? Since Garrett publishes compressor flow maps and they serve much value in evaluating/comparing turbo performance, this is a nice thing to reference. ESPECIALLY now that there is a map for the 10T compressor, it would be nice to overlay your wheel with the original wheel. And if Garrett did take the time to make an actual "custom" compressor wheel for this application, then surely they wouldve made the map showing its respective performance. 2) What turbine wheel are you using? Is it the native wheel that Garrett wouldve used for "x" compressor above or something else you felt would perform better/or just sized based on housing size limitations? 3) Which cartridge? The specifics of this dont mean too much, as youve said already it's a non water cooled DBB assembly made by Garrett. Personally I feel only the #1 to be the most important to the consumer. Additionally releasing this data would have minimal if any affects to your R&D or other proprietary ramifications. #2 and #3 for the most part are less important to the consumer and I can definitely see keeping more proprietary as there is much R&D that wouldve went into making the decisions to come to these conclusions. None of these points have you answered directly in prior posts, and again, you dont have to at all... but I figured Id try to ask them in a "mature and adult fashion" what others have been trying to do in the wrong way. |

#1 - As far as I can see they have released them.
a) they have fabricated a set start to finish. b) they have installed them. c) they have dyno tuned them. d) they have road tested them for many miles. e) they have said to call them for more details (see f below). f) they have several orders placed already (shops and private). g) they have several sets actively being worked/assembled. h) they have documented all said events on this forum. #2 - Reasons for making the Compressor public are things I had listed above (compressor performance capability vs. stock, etc). Additionally they have made claims that state their turbos "flow double the airflow volume of the stock turbos", and having the compressor flow map would definitely substantiate this as well. |

They should back up any and all claims that they make, beyond that it is up to them to give more info or not.
I for one would be concerned about durability and reliability, things that are not popular to discuss on this forum. |
