Default Info on "The Black"

I joined the site a long time ago, then had to abandon any thought of doing anything fun due to tuition Anywhoo, I'm back in the states now and will be getting a job at a Ford dealership probably, and may have some money. After my dad and I finish our Pro Street 64' Falcon, I'm going to be starting on my Pro-street 98' Tahoe. Would like to do something like Parish (1320video.com) and was wondering if anyone had any information on a turbo being sold by mjmturbos.com called "The Black". I would like to go with Red Russian, but I doubt I will be running 1,800+ HP I'm just writing things down right now, planning and considering, and was wondering if anyone had ANY info on this "top secret" turbo.

Thanks,
Randy

btw, anyone know a place that sells dump truck or semi turbos? I have acquired many ME/MET friends since moving to Virginia, so a rebuild and customization could be done.

if they dont give dimensions they dont get money.. lol ive never heard of those. it is stupid to say trust us it will work ... every car truck and suv has certain requirments for sizing the turbocharger .... and for tunning purpose's (a base map) you need to know the a/r's on the turbo

It does sound stupid, and I would not purchase from them without any maps or info at all, just wondering if anyone had any information o nit. It's a Garrett, but I don't know which model. Wanted information so that I could do some research and see if any similar sized turbos were equipped on any machinery/trucks, along with getting flow #'s.

Like I said in my first post, this is nothing serious, I'm just looking around, and thinking, and wantd to know if anyone knew anything about this n'.

If you are really interested I can stop down there and ask them about it. I live like 15 minutes from their shop.

Not to the point where I would ask someone to take thier own time to look up information. Like i said, I'm only planning right now, it's a slow process with tuition sucking all my money away. Thanks though for the offer.
