You sure that's not just a stock turbo? Has FoMoCo on the exterior and Borg Warner who makes the stock turbo.

I gotcha. Did you buy the car privately or from a dealer?

Yes, that could very well be one of Sourskittle's snails.

Hypergram; he was a vendor for his KP39 based 'Cyborg39' hybrid on here, and was gone in shame long before you joined the site (like at least 3 years ago).

He was also at least part of the reason for DHM going bankrupt as well.

I've definitely heard that name a few times since I've been here haha. What did he do that was so bad? Shame to hear about DHM going bankrupt because of him tho.

The bore on the cold side is bigger than stock. not so sure about the hotside though. Might be a X37 or something in that range.

So basically sour Skittles made the turbo and sold them through Dead Hook. Turbos blew up and DHM took that brunt of that and went out of business? Sorry, didn't wanna ready all 150 pages

I went ahead and searched some of the obvious options for hybrids. The only one with Compressor wheel with 6 blades is whoosh but the exhaust side is much bigger. I'd say that this is a local shop made hybrid not necessarily a know brand. I could be wrong though.

 

[k20_brandon]

i did some research and its looking to be a cyborg "V1" the exhaust sides are just ported and shaved the blades

Yup, that's the gist of it all.
