I am wondering what others think and this question has probably been asked a million times but the threads seem to go off on a tangent.
I am thinking about a new turbo.
My garrett 35R has broken turbine fins....something, possibly slag from the ebay manifold, got into it so now i can't boost more than 11psi. So I can either get the replacement 35R cartridge for $425 minus shipping from turbosdirect or buy a new turbo. The 35r has been a fun turbo. I saw 25psi with the twin scroll 1.06 t4 housing on it at about 4k. I noticed full boost moving up the rpm range so I bought a new housing. I changed out the hot side to an open 0.86 t4 and that is when i noticed the broken fins.
So the options i have thought of for the 7m:
from my understanding the 626x is similar to the garrett 35r but with better power everywhere. i'm not sure if that is the bb version for the precisions or not. the 6765 is a different turbo all together.
I'm wanting to make 500-550 pump, no qsv, on a mustang dyno (not a dynojet) but with nice response (full boost, 25psi, at 4k is fine but not after 4k) like the 35R with the big hot side. I am at 346 hp on the mustang dyno with power holding all the way to 7k and torque dropping off a cliff (dynoed with the broken fins).

So the options i have thought of for the 7m:
- get a new CHRA for the 35r (cheapest)
- get a precision 6262 journal (extra $500 from option 1)
- 6265 journal (extra $500 from option 1)
- 6765 journal (extra $500 from option 1)
