im currently using a CDM 16g
but looking at getting a name brand Forced Performance 16g.

anyone know if CDM turbos lack the power compared to name brand turbo's
or are the power ratio's the same

 

i wish i had a chance to dyno some turbos back to back, but the best i have is my own t3/t04e that made 310whp at 15psi on a vitara piston, stock cam z6. i cant imagine a real garrett would make any more than that on the same setup

 

what about the life of the turbo?
