Dude I'm digging this turbo! I bought me one too!!! They had a Black Friday deal, everything in the store 20% off! I just bought the 76mm, I really like the specs,

- Compressor Wheel (Major/Exducer): 76.6/103.6mm
- Turbine Wheel (Major/Inducer): 77.4/88.9 mm

After the 20% off it was only $479.20 plus $37.41 shipping, to a total price of only $516.61! Can't complain with that!!

Because the BW is alot bigger! The way my pipes are designed I dont think they'll hold that big S475. Plus to get a similar size in a BW is about twice the price.

Hey what size v-band did you end up using for the exhaust? 4"? I bought a 3.5" from ebay and it was to small, unless they actually sent me a 3"!

Yea I ordered the 3.5" too bc that's what it said on their website, but It's definitely not lol. Good news is the 3.5" will work on the compressor outlet and RPS sells the necessary o-ring to make it seal if you bought the vband with the groove for an o-ring. I believe it may be like the bw 300 flange, which RPS also sells. I haven't gotten it yet, but Im going to call RPS and give them the measurements and see what they think

Sweet, lemme know! I too noticed that the 3.5" v-band fit the compressor outlet lol, I think I'll just make my own thin paper gasket to put between the v-band and use it there.
