Re: Bullseye Turbos

I had a shop (which I won't say, but it is a well know turbo shop) tell me that I needed a 20G turbo. When I was looking at the next step up that seemed to be the hot ticket at the time and the reason he gave me that I needed a 20G was because I did not go to the track. I would run race gas on the street, but never went to the track. That was it. That was their reason!! They would not sell me the turbo I wanted. I did hear a rumor through the grape vine (I know.. take it will grain a salt) that they were having problems getting parts for their hot turbo and that was why they were pushing the 20G's. I don't know if it was true, but it sure would make sense.

I have known that Dave worked at extreme turbo at one point in time. I asked him about his history. He never lied to me or tried to "Con" me as it was stated in the thread. He listened to my goals, gave some options and we found a turbo that worked for me. That is how I got the HX35 on my car. It was something new that no one had tried and now look it seems to be the next hot ticket. I ran a 7.63 in the 1/8 with it.
