Well, seeing as my status post on the front page did not bring too many replies, I figure I'd make a thread.

I have been researching fairly in depth into a variety of different turbos for my setup and have come across a few of the Turbonetics options available through Bisimoto.

I purchased a bunch of parts for my single cam build from him and was always pleased with the product/customer support that he offers so it got me thinking, I would certainly do business with him again.


Wanted to post to see if anyone is running/knows anyone who runs turbonetics turbos with good results. More so interested in the longevity/customer service side of things (rather than the power making ability as they have a variety of sizes/options) as that is one of the main reasons I am trying to stay away from PTE.

I am looking to make 4-500whp with a bit of room for growth in the future in the way of manifold upgrades/E85/more boost.

I had found the BTX6462XJ originally which utilizes a billet 64mm inducer and is 700+ hp capable <-----probably overkill

but Bisi had recommended a BTX6162XJ which also features a billet wheel and is 500+ hp rated <----prob more up my alley.

Both are avail in JB or ceramic BB, I'd like to stay Journal for this setup for a few reasons.



experiences/opinions/suggestions are much appreciated!!!

i only know one guy running one on the s2k, B5254T4 made 500 something on his with pump gas, and i agree on going journal, just simplifies everything

illestrolla

He seem to be having good luck with it?


any yea, journal should be more than sufficient for what I need, it's just easier all the way around.

@ just about 800 new the Billet 6162 is looking better and better to me. Bisi has been making some huge power on these things for a few years now. Hell, they already have a 600whp CRZ!

So why are these so cheap compared to garrett/precision?

illestrolla

ehhhh the ballbearing options are up in the 12-1300$ neighborhood depending on what you go with.


the journals are 8-900

I'd say that's just about on par with what PTE gets for their journal 6262



Edit: Here's a link to his "Store" I'd say they are priced just about the same as the competition

I have a turbonetics 66mm T3/T4 turbo currently set at 27psi@640whp... I will be retuning within the next couple weeks looking to push 40-43psi

How do you like it? Ever had to get in touch with them for customer support at all?

Rollinx25

Nope never had any issues so far... If you need some help message me.

Sweet man, thanks for the offer, If I have any questions I will certainly get ahold of you.

Damn work firewall won't let me watch the vid, I'll have to take a peek when I get out tonight.

aren't BB most of the time not rebuildable?
