    just to reiterate though, Tomei's M-series turbos are journal bearing, vs the older style B-series which are ball bearing, which have been discontinued now.

    having said that... i think im leaning towards the M7655, looks like i was wrong before, they did manage to get the journal bearing M7655 to make more power than the B7655 even though they are the same size, the fact that its journal bearing doesnt seem to have affected spool by much either

    I wish the exchange was that good. Not so much these days! Last I sent monies exchange was .012764 through a broker. So more like $3830.00cad -5's are cheapest.

    Their stuff is very well priced turbo wise compared to their competitors i find. but lets face it, that video was lammmeeeeee. It looked like it was made in windows movie maker with a zelda soundtrack, I mean, this is Tomei! They could of made something a little bit better than an amateur hour cut and paste bananza.

    This is HOW you sell a turbo to consumers...
