Default Reinventing the rear-mount

Unleashed Performance - 810RWHP, Stock Engine, Oil-less Rear Mount, and E85 - LS1TECH

I really like this build and wanted to get some opinions on it.These Comp turbos are oil-less/only need coolant ran through them,supposedly spoil faster than traditional turbos and only require maintenance every 50k miles.

I know the builder said it will eventually have an IC but I like the original set-up with no IC and using meth.

Would this style set-up feel really down on power at low rpms out of boost on a truck?
Or could the proper turbo size make power through out the rpm range[2k - mid to upper 5k's] on this style set-up?

Yes the oil less system allows you to mount the turbo in any angle and still its fine. Its a ball bearing turbo.
For the trucks you have so much room in the engine bay no real need to go rear mount. Unless you want to get away from your oil pump.
The oil stuff is on the price side.
we are dealer for them, if you need any help let me know.

Trick- what would be the price on a properly sized oilless comp turbo that is rear-mounted on a 6.0?

You are looking at 2100.00

Ballbearing Triplex oil less.

Thanks

thanks Rick

I've never priced turbos before but to put it in perspective- what would a BB oil using/normal turbo with all the required oiling equipment cost for a rear-mount 6.0?
