Default On3's New 78/76 - Anyone going to try it?

Looks like On3 just released their new 78/76 turbo. It's T4 with .96 AR.

Anyone thinking of trying it??

If it's a direct replacement for a mp70 I would be willing to try it. If it has a 75mm ex wheel it should make damn good power on a 5.3.

That turbine wheel for that price is not a bad deal. Kinda tempting.....

Yea I know. Some guys don't trust the on3 stuff but I think for that price it would be worth a try!

Guess it would ok for a junkyard budget build, but I wouldn't trust a 400$ set of headers, little own a spinning path of destruction to the inside of my motor.

Have a thick intercooler and it should act as a shield absorbing the damage should the turbo come apart.

I kind of want to try one of these on another build with the obx turbo headers I have sitting on a shelf...
