    T61 Bolt on Turbo by Cx Racing

    bingo, i'm sure we will find out soon enough after someone runs one for a while. if the balance was bad i doubt it would last 90 days & that they'd offer a 90 day warranty. I've heard that the larger "china" turbo's are alright because they don't have to spin anywhere near as fast as the smaller...

    T61 Bolt on Turbo by Cx Racing

    a) shaft is larger, housings are bigger and inducer is larger. b) 60trim wheel in a ct26 is massive i compared the casting of the housings to the CT26 looks very similar quallity, however i cannot comment on the materials used. ill see what the balance is like.

    T61 Bolt on Turbo by Cx Racing

    are you talking about the dump pipe studs? did you see the included bolts? is this being dyno tuned? what pressure does your customer intend to run? what's your opinion of the quality so far?

    T61 Bolt on Turbo by Cx Racing

    i've been doing research and CX Racing produce this turbo http://www.cxracing.com/mm5/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=CXR&Product_Code=TRB-T61&Category_Code=TOCH Says that they "design" and produce bolt on turbo's which leads me to think that they produce the rear housing them self. Or...
