No personal exp. with CheapTurbo, but more than a few members have gone through them. I dont recal hearing anything bad about them.
Id personally use two junkard 63/60 T3's on a budget V8. Between the two, I bet they could pump enough air for 450-500hp. Talk about bang for your buck.

 

junkyard T3 60/63s if tuned right etc should be worth more like 600+hp... The t3 .60 compressor map goes to 340hp but thats out of its efficient range...

 

Yeah, I was being a bit conservative. I could see them reaching 600 if pushed. I have seen a dyno graph of a 63/60 reaching 300whp on a B18c.

 

i have an ssautoshit turbo, it worked along with the manifold for the 100 miles i used it till the engine started leaking so much oil i dont wanna drive it anymore. its the t3/t4e on a 260k mile d16a6 at 14psi with a zdyne.

im gonna use it on my new engine because the turbo was free but i will buy a new one as soon as i can.

the turbo has worked but i have barely used it .. just for drag racing and only for 100 miles, my exhaust manifold barely has turned blue.

 

What did the 63/60's come on?? and ive also thought of going with used diesel turbos off powerstrokes. does anyone know the potetial of these. thanks for the feed back , dave

 

highly recommend down2turbo on ebay. Got one from him and will vouch for his turbo's. Lots of other positive feedback about this seller. Spoken to him over the phone and seemed like a straight seller.

 

i have personally used a Master Power turbo i bought from SSAutoChrome

i also had a heated discussion with a lot of close minded followers on this site about the turbo. see this thread https://www.homemadeturbo.com/forum/...4722#msg304722

i have used it and it has performed FLAWLESSLY for over 10k miles now

i am using the 57trim, 50ar/83ar turbo. $375 brand new

very few people on this site have used the Master Power turbo and have no real experience with them because of the hatered for SSAC on this site.

 

Good stuff , thanks
