New IX Turbo

Cal,

Will there be any chance in getting the IX Turbo with 70mm turbo outlet housing? They are making some good power without the lagg and with better spool.

I have tried sourcing this turbo from Japan but the pricing is just ridiculous. However, I will call around next week when everyone is back from SEMA. I might be able to find something.

Thanks for the info southcrane, Cal was a great guy.

Thanks, Tom keep me update with your findings. From what I'm reading this is the setup for me, you get the best of both worlds.
