carl0s Posted September 5, 2006 Share Posted September 5, 2006 sorry but off topic anyone else noticed the rear tyre footprint in that photo[sHOCK][/sHOCK] Do you mean the fact that the tyres twisted? That's desirable apparently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toyotatom Posted September 5, 2006 Share Posted September 5, 2006 The turbo looks similar in 'Oh my God' factor, to the tubbie on the matt black Dragon Motorsport/Performance RX7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BEP Nick Posted September 14, 2006 Share Posted September 14, 2006 Hello All. I am Nick from BullseyePower.com I saw a the link on our server so I figured I would check it out. We sent that turbo down to the guys at TPS to "test" it. It is a great story. They called up interested in the Borg Warner turbos and they said to send the biggest turbo we had. They had no idea what they were getting. That was a very interesting phone call after it showed up on thier door step. This turbo is a 95mm Inducer S510 Turbo. It is good to around 1600hp. The turbo weights about 36kg. The crazy part is this turbo came from a pair that were going to go on a ProMod drag car. And YES I said A PAIR! If you have any more questions about borg warner turbos I would be happy to answer them. Later Nick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Later Nick The Borg Warner turbos do interest me, although I have no money to buy anything like that for quite some time. I suppose the new Porsche 911 has created a lot of publicity for BW turbos in general. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terminator Posted September 14, 2006 Share Posted September 14, 2006 Looks like fun, Just a dyno set up to see what it can do. Obviously never intended for the road as the bonnet has no cut outs in the right places Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
