The Best "50 trim" Ball Bearing Turbo Kit

...I know AMS has one. So does TurboTrix. I'm curious to know who else has or makes one, and whose kit makes the most power and torque on just unleaded pump gas, and unleaded race gas - no nitrous, no methanol, no alcohol, no water injection, no C16 - just unleaded pump gas, and unleaded race gas?

Go look in their respective forums for dynographs and track times. Most people at TT show numbers with pump and race gas. I would say both AMS and TT are top notch kits, but stay away from RNR.

is there a reason you say to "stay away from RNR"?
I'm in the market for a 50trim BB too.

I'm not fond of their products, especially their turbo kits. You can search around for details. The AMS and TT kits are 100% proven and work very well. They are more reputable and trustworthy, imo.

Take a look at Shearer's Turbo kits too. His work is top-notch as well and in the same price range, if not cheaper.

Power and torque would be good to know, but trap speeds would be better! Just because dynos and trap speed both r subjected to alot of diffences i think trap speeds r subjected to less! Btw Your idea for wanting #'s from those requirements would be of interest to me also.Pump gas traps on stock bottom end with no other power adders like alky r things i really am interested to know as well. PS i have also seen some NASTY RNR kits
