Anyone know where to get a masterpower T-70? I've looked at Miketurboinc and they are out of stock. Supposedly there is something up with Masterpowers factory.

only place I could find it with a T4 inlet, but you can't pick what a/r you want...

Red7m said:I am pretty sure that Turbochargers.com carries masterpower turbos.

Alpinesupra said:no they are not less reliable than others because they are a garrett affiliate because garrett bought them out and are located over in england, they are so much cheaper than garrett themselves because they are just a regular journal bearing instead of any ball bearing set up and they are they older garrett designs also, i may be wrong on that but iirc they are. . . but yet at the same time still very good at making power and lasting. . .also if you notice their turbos dont go any bigger than a 70mm so its cheaper and easier to make and put together.
this is why jeff @ mdc (notrice.com) uses them to make his bolt on turbos for our cars, cheaper, very reliable, durable, and readily avaliable all the while great at making power...

Alpinesupra said:probably not seeing as the turbos on there are bolt on turbos, but any t70 oil line kit will work, or better yet give jeff a pm or call whichever and talk to him, let him know what you are wanting to do, he is very nice and can answer pretty much any and all turbo questions and he can make you a custom t4 set up turbo instead of a bolt on..

p.s
btw for anyone who wants to know in this months issue of turbo magazine there is a mk3 from the uk that uses the master power gt45 turbo, i picked it up myself and its a good article..
