I concur with Pocket 110%. I just went through a buttery smooth warranty issue with them, i called Kevin, then Benita from TN gave me a R/A number, sent out my turbo to them( Next day'd it to the tune of $171), they had my new BB back to me by the end of the week!.

Noooo, they make alot of turbos that you can stuff into a 7.3 Alot of the T series, 66, 70, 76+ mm, plus compound setups, they can supply anything you want. But what i think you mean, there is only one "drop-in" turbo that TN makes, it is the BB unit now.

Just so you know Jerid, I am running a Garrett GTP38R. For some reason this BB unit is not available at the moment. I have heard many good reports on the TN BB unit.

CSIPSD, go ahead with your experience if you think it will be helpful. Still can't break that other one eh?

Jerid,

Since you are getting the injectors from Beans see what he can do for a package deal.

He sells the GTP38R (or whatever new version they are coming out with) that Mike has and the Hypermax H2E. Unless you are absolutely set on the TN.

Kris, what happened to your TN? Why warranty work?

The compressor wheel smacked the housing a few times, there was some marks on the compressor housing evident of it, plus i had more aluminum shavings blown back through the intake, than i'd like.

Listen to Joe he has been there and done it. He is the turbo-master!


I however prefer the Hypermax H2E setup over the drop in turbos.

Ben is selling:

1) Hypermax H2E turbo, ceramic coated, WOP QSSB quickspool with H2E mounting kit.

2) Faubion Built extreme duty tranny

3) Stealth dual HPOP system

e-mail him at:

soaggydogg@yahoo.com

I was seriously gonna jump on the H2E turbo, but the $ is just not there right now. Damn, I wish I could get the turbo
