Neil,
When I did my research no one had mention the gtx 30's. I was recommended gt35 to make the power I make but I am making it on 30's. I did not feel like trading off anything. That is why I settled on the pte 5857. We will see how it goes. I have to re fab my headers due to the fact that the 5857's are 1 1/2 inches longer then the gt30's so they are into the wheels.

I have not ran the GTX turbos yet, all I can tell you is our custom Alpha turbos spool like mad and make more top end power than competing turbo setups.

Well fellow members, They're here! Here are some pics of the compressor wheels, old and new. First old school GT3076R's. Second pic is new billet wheel. Third pic is top view of of new billet wheel (note 6 blades). Fourth pic is old wheel (note 7 blades). The new wheel looks like it will bite the air a bite more aggressively then the older style.
What about850ft/lbs@ 4500RPM with Alpha's?

OS, My warehouse is in Plainview. It is about 30 minutes out of the midtown tunnel. I have a office in mid town right by grand central but like to stay on long island as much as possible. For sure we can link up.

I went with the ball bearing ones because I thought I might be leaving something on the table. One of the driving factors was the serge ring in the compressor housing.

I wish I would have gone with the BB because they asked, but I didn't want to spend the extra $$ at the time. If I go 6262's I'm going to go BB's for sure!

I want what I want and will wait if need be. I have been waiting for quite some time for these to get here. No fault of Precision turbo.
