It is great that you keep posting this stuff. 3 years ago it was just gt35 this and g37 that. Then the HTAs started to come out and now PTE made better turbos. We all might have another option in turbos, well 2 more. These Comp turbos and the new BW turbos.

And I agree with you there. I wouldn't chose a PTE over HTA even if I had to save up another 4 months for the HTA. Some people are having great success with them but I love the hta86. I want to see the results from JB if he can test a hta86 SS vs TS. That makes me excited lol
I was just mentioning the fact that there are newer and better turbos out now days. The old PTEs were as bad as the turbonetics turbos. I thought those were great until I blew 2 turbos in a POS Civic Si.

I personally feel that a SS HTA3586 can be just as good as a TS HTA3586. If you run a 1.25" runner manifold, SS T3 0.82 housing the HTA3586 should spool like a TS but will make more power out the topend. just my personal opinion... I have not seen this tested yet.

To be honest sounds like you want something like a Holset VGT turbo. I know the DSM guys are trying them and maybe if other companies build something like it they will become more popular. Some type of Billet HTA wheel with a VGT exhaust would be awesome , any turbo companies listening??

Talk to Justin at Comp, great guy! Very friendly and knows his stuff! After talking to him, I am going to go with the T4 64 TBB Ex Tip with the .63 Tial V-band inlet. It will flow 70lb a min!!! They have tons of options, so as my car needs to go faster, my turbo will get bigger!

I run a Comp Turbo 1.0 a/r CT43-7071. My car is currently at Strictly Modified. I'll post the info once I get the numbers.
