View Full Version : Masterpower Turbos The Lowdown Straight From The Dealers Mouth!

I have noticed many threads lately pertaining to Masterpower Turbochargers so I feel that it is necessary for you all to receive a definitive answer.

Let me first begin by introducing myself so you can understand how I know all this history. My name is Robert and I work for Masterpowers' US distribution center in Miami, FL.

Masterpower Turbos (MTs) are made in Brazil, this is also where there corporate headquarters is located.

Myth #1 the ebay scammer,
A good while back there was a man who shall remain nameless due to legal reasons that ran an ebay store by the name of SSAUTOCHROME. I'm sure you have seen it. Well this crook used to be one of MTs dealers, and this is why he is no longer a dealer. He took our best selling turbo the T-70 sent it to china had some crappy ass bottom of the barrel plant replicate it and then started selling it on ebay for half price all the while calling it a Masterpower Turbo. To this day we are still fighting hard to earn back the reputation we once had before this A-HOLE ruined it in a matter of a year. These turbo had unbalaned wheels, glued together compressor housings and where made with the wrong metallurgy which caused them to fail 99.999999% of the time. FYI he know calls them Super T-70's BEWARE!!!!!

Our state of business today,
We now have very stringent rules for all of our dealers, you act like a crook you don't get our turbos! Masterpower has now purchased its own warranty center located in Miami near the US distribution center. We are working hard everyday to develop new lines of Turbochargers, so you can have the right turbo for your combination without spending an arm and a leg!

Basically when you buy a Masterpower here is what you are getting: An affordable alternative to a Garrett, a 1 year warranty, and most importantly a great turbo that won't break the bank.

Moderators please read: This thread was not posted with selling in mind only to clear the name of my brand. Please do not delete.

Sincerely,

Robert J

As much as I would love to call, I would rather EVERYONE benefit from the information (thus asking publicly). Compressor maps in your compressor housings would be a very nice start to proving masterpower to be a logical choice when picking between turbos. I'm a fan of cold hard data, and I for one like to plot my engines' needs across a compressor map before chunking down any change.

I'm not trying to put you between a rock and a hard place, and I'll understand if you can't distribute your compressor maps, just say so. I only ask because I think it would be benefitial to us as a community, and you as a distributor/seller.

As for the compressor maps, I talked to masterpower a month ago about them and they had just received the airflow dynamometer. They had assured me that as soon as they test their entire industrial turbo line that they would start measuring their performance turbo line. As soon as they are released you all can expect a full write up posted in this board.

In response to the question about becoming a vendor on this site I tried they said that they already have enough vendors I even tried to do a group buy for you guys and they said I didnt have enough posts. T70's normally go for 605.00 shipped I was ready and prepared to do a 10 man group buy at 565.00 shipped oh well :cry:

MP T70 .96 or .68 available the .96 spools "ok" and the top end is stupid the .68 can be a little too punchy and the top end is noticable less, also have a .81 but its 225 extra since its a turbonetics housing it seems to be the ideal combo.

06-16-2008, 10:51 AM
I really can't accurately tell you that. I have not personally used a MP66 on a MKIII sorry but all I can do is give it my best guess I would say that w/ the .68 it would spool up quite fast. you should most likely be in full boost around 3500

Masterpower is currently restructuring its dealer program and soon there will be a website that list all authorized dealers. Turbos purchased from anyone not on that list will NOT BE COVERED UNDER THE 1 YEAR WARRANTY!!!!!!

If anyone wants to check if someone is a dealer they can pm, email, or call me.

Would this just be a change of housings? Or would it be a matter of wheels too? Based on your response im still having a hard time judging how it would react on our cars. So im thinking it would be nice if i could commit to a turbo knowing if i didnt like how it spools i could buy a $200 housing and completely change the characteristics of that turbo. Is this possible, or would i be needing more work that just switching out housings?

yes its just a different housing I normally tell folks to get the .96 cuz if you don't like it you can sell it easier than a .68 more people upgrade than down grade. the housings for forum members are 150 shipped

Ive been running a t70 for about 3 years now and i love it. Ive made 551hp with this turbo on pump gas. I should be in the 600 range with race fuel. It is pretty laggy on a intercooler setup like stock but once you go with a front facing intake manifold lke i did you will see extremely fast spool times.

Im guessing that was a .68 trim, did you notice the power drop off in the higher RPM when driving? i was looking at some dyno maps and they seem to peak quick and start dying off quick at about 5000

Nope not at all. I have 272 cams so my power keeps going all the way to the revlimiter. If i could get rid of that it would continue to pull till i let off the gas. Ive been running 25psi for awhile now and sometimes ill go to 30 with no problems.

Yes masterpower turbos use Garrett internal parts ie: 360 thrust bearing.
No masterpower does not make ball bearing units.
The closest unit to a GT35 that I have is PN#950011 you can find it in the 2008 catalog.

Either your sense of sarcasm is failing, or you're being a bit of a dick here.

Do you know how many people use REAL Masterpower T70's and are 100% satisfied with them? A lot.

Do you know how many people *think* they bought a real Masterpower T70,
had it take a sh*t, and now talk down about the company because of a failed eBay purchase? A lot.

Classify yourself here.

Of course the possibility of a good turbo going bad is there...but sh*t happens.
I won't necessarily talk on your behalf...but do you have ANY idea
how many people lack the ability and knowledge to prep a turbo before installation?
Running sh*t BOV's, bad vacuum source, crossthreaded oil lines that leak oil
destroying turbo's and $10 APC Air filters are frequent causes of failing turbos.

Assuming yours was a REAL Masterpower Turbo, don't immediately point fingers at the manufactuer...Especially if it's Wang & Chun building it in a sweatshop in the middle of China.

I really want the top end of a T4 but since it'll be on a 1JZ I figured going divided would help with the spool. If not, what would you recommend for a 1JZ with all of the supporting mods looking for 500rwhp max? Thanks, Rob.

Hey rob, check to see if there's any garret or turbonetic turbine housing that you might be looking for. I've done this with my old garret...garret didn't have the turbine housing I wanted so bought a turbonetic turbine housing that I needed.

You should call me I have a special deal just for you. ANY TURBO YOU WANT AT COST+SHIPPING!!!!!!!!!!!! YOU PICK, MASTERPOWER, TURBONETICS, PRECISION, GARRETT, BORG WARNER, MITSUBISHI, OR IHI etc etc.
That is how serious I am about customer service, I will make up for someone elses bullshit turbos.

Now that you have just been given the deal of the year, please refrain from pouring HATER-AID all over my thread.

sincerely

What Manifold are you using for that beast? It looks like a turbonetics or a mvp manifold. Good numbers, it just looks like you have some tuning to do.

Are the MP turbo's compatable to Garret, Turbonetics, Precision housings?. Just wondering if you wanted to swap turbine housings if you would have to get a MP housing.

do you have any MP turbos similar to the garrets gt28/25 families...thinking running twin turbo just need some ideas for what you guys have, would like to do around 500 at wheels without cams though a r154, will be a all around performance...autox, and drag.
or do you have a recommendation for a single set-up, that can possibly do the same

unless you are trying to make over 600 I would stay away from the 70. I do however have a 61 and 64 that spool well below 4000 rpm and punch real hard.

p.s. do you also sell good quality single turbo exhaust manifolds for the 1JZ i really dont feel like spending 1000 bucks on a custom made one.

I appreciate your compliments, it means a lot to me that my customers think highly of me. I am a racer that has been ripped off on ebay, and in forums and so on and so forth. I understand what it's like to be lied too, and then have your money stolen, it sucks. When I started my business I vowed that I would be different, that I would make myself transparent to my customers, and that I would make sure to never become a shop that cared only about making money.

Of course I have to make a buck to stay in business, but that doesn't mean it has to be first on my list of priorities. I want you, the customer, to get the parts you need to build your car the way you want for the best price possible, the first time. I'd rather make 10 percent of something than a 100 percent of nothing. I firmly believe that a successful parts business can survive based on word of mouth and satisfied customers, instead of maximizing profit and selling bogus parts made in China.

To any of you that have been ripped off, I say this, call me and I will make it right.

Thanks for reading,

P.S. the only manifolds that I currently have are custom made and cost about a 1000 bucks LOL.
