Current stock turbos are about on their way out, and have been looking at upgrading twins for a while, went on to Pure to look at the stage 2 dd's and saw these new pure600 ones? Looking for anyone who has these already or even just some more information on them. Thanks!

If I go with the Pure600s do I have to change all my vrsf stuff? Down pipes, race exhaust, charge pipe etc.

What are the differences between these, the PURE600, and the Stage 2 DD's that are rated for 450-600hp?

Forum discussion. My understanding it does not fit stock inlets. Will require 2" inlets

https://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1584717

I am wondering what is the difference between these and the Stage 2 too? Others are stating the new PT600 are made in China. Like to know the exact difference though beside made in China.

I would like to know the differences as well. I am trying to make a choice between pure600 vs Stage 1.

The Pure600 are a cast manifold with the turbo's where as the Pure Stage 2 DD are an upgrade to your stock housing. That's it guys, don't over think it

Would like to hear some first hand feedback.

Looking to pick up a set of turbos in the next week or two.

These are too new for much feedback, yet.

Which would be the better choice for a 500whp goal? What’s the difference in spool characteristics, powerband, etc? I’m also debating the Pure600’s vs the Pure Stage 2 DD’s.

Thanks.

....but overpriced these days.

I'm also considering Pure600's.

Seems their HP rating is 125 HP over RB ones and the price is only 19 bucks difference?

What am I missing here?

https://topgearsolutions.com/pure-tu...urbos-pure600/

I'm doing turbo's, inlet's, outlets, and these come with 2" inlet option. should I opt for the 2" and get an accommodating inlet kit?

Definitely go 2" with 2" inlets

Why is a Chinese casting bad, over stock?

Hard to say, it's not that all chinese castings are bad but I guess there's always the possibility of receiving a poorly casted manifold & the runners aren't fully cleared or something. Visually the outside could just appear sloppy, when you cast something there's a little bit of cleaning up that is required where the molten metal was poured through the sand.

What really matters when buying Chinese parts is the QC process (and balancing accuracy when speaking of turbos). They have the capability to produce a good product but if the QC process is lacking then it's a crap shoot.

Personally if it were my money and I was buying upgraded turbos I would request a balance sheet from the manufacture. If they can't comply with that then I'd probably move on unless they had a very very good reason why the couldn't.

Not sure what the company's financials have to do with the quality of their turbos...
