Was bored and surfing E-bay

I have looked into the exoticspeed turbo quite a bit. I have not been pushed over the edge because there is just not enough on cars with dyno numbers to be confident. I guess someone took a jump with fp and cbrd so you never know. The other one is very interesting, it's a ball bearing stock IX turbo?

We are the only US dealer of Exotic Speed. They make a great product. Although their turbos have not really caught on yet, they are a great product.

We have many many customers running their turbo on their STis

If anyone is interested we can work out a really good deal on the first person to get one and give it a run and review.

Some details on the turbo's they do have listed would not be bad either.

Yea there is absolutely no info about the turbo except for:

"Superior performance: Use of advanced aerodynamic design for turbine and compressor wheels along with minimized mechanical loss and low inertia generate superior performance including high flow rates, wide operating ranges and excellent response. "

If they want anyone to take then seriously they need to do a lot better then that.

^ That's the response I hoping to get. Hoping to broaden the mind of fellow EvoM members, and maybe prove that there are other options out there. (It helps the market grow )

Interesting. So that is a 20G with an antisurge compressor housing. Is that a Kamak TD06-20G CHRA? My 20G surges a little under 3.5~4K RPMs

430whp? I can do that on a IX. Not seeing the advantages over a surgeport covered IX turbo. I will test one of those on monday and let everyone know how it does.

Let us know, I have been interested in a ES430TI for a long time, but with lack of proof have not pulled the trigger. You are right 430 is not too impressive but for the price may be worth it. It would be nice to have some stock frame options other then fp and cbrd, but those have been proven time and time again and that is why they are so successful. Results is what we are all looking for.
