240$ turbonetics t4 turbo?

http://www.summitracing.com/parts/tn...rjwaAurH8P8HAQ

Found this on summit while looking for some parts... anyone use these?
Will this work well with the fuel injected v6?
I'm a little skeptical of this turbo...

And here I was thinking that I found the best deal ever...
At this point I'll just go and get a 5.3 swap for less money. Thanks for the info

dont discard the idea yet , u can buy an ebay t3/t4 for 130 bucks shipped , or an ebay gt3582 for 200 and make around 450 hp with the v6

look in the v6 section for my v6 turbo builds and fasteddis and willieox's builds u can do a bar ebones turbo system for around 800 bucks and they are reliable

ive been using ebay turbos for like 9 years now

Don't forget HX35s or HY35s on the secondary market. Solid turbos that can be found at a good price.

Re: 240$ turbonetics t4 turbo?

So after doing what i do best, researching, i have come to having a cxracing gt35 t4 turbo with the stock v6 and a custom exhaust manifold and forced induction cam
Question is, is there anyone making cams suitable for forced induction for these engines?

gt3582 witht he t3 turbine u dont want the t4 housing on a pretty sock 2.8/3.1
auto or stick?

http://deltacam.com/

^^ ask for a 260 cam its 115$ shipped with lifters with an auto trans , if u have a manual the 272 hydraulic grind will make abunch more top end power

do not get the 272 mechanical/solid lifter grind
