With a ball bearing turbo vs the journal bearing , the turbo will spool a little faster , throttle response will be somewhat better, there will be a more linear smooth feel when boosting, lower amount of oil needed for lubrication which means less chances for oil leaks lol ahem. I'm sure there are other things as well but the differences are not that huge over the pte4854 that we have now . My justification for upgrading is basically due to the reasons stated above and the possibility of hitting 450hp easier when the motor is built in the near future. Turbo should be amazing w spool times w port and polished heads.

Anyways that's my rant. Lol.

Not too complicated, given the turbo fits on my manifold not sure if the gtx uses or could be made to use the t3 flange as I don't have vband there. lol.
