How on earth did you manage to write that out twice :blink:

Yeah I have never heard of them either. I really don't understand why people go towards random unheard of turbochargers when the ones that are proven time and time again at the end of the day aren't that much dearer. Given that 9/10 times a "cheap" budget turbocharger doesn't fit properly and requires a custom dump pipe or spacer plate or custom made oil and water lines, usually ends up being just as much as a bolt on Garret or Hypergear kit. Not to mention than you don't get the power you want and end up selling it 6 months later.

I just did a google on the PCPA turbochargers. PCPA is the name of the website (maybe shop aswell, didn't really look into it that much) that sells them. Not the brand of the turbochargers themselves.

So the turbochargers appear to be just a typical no name brand ebay spec turbo like the rest of them.

    • You should have got a Maine Coone then. Only thing is they're big. But so cool, and just like a dog. Or, just get yourself a high performance dog. That'll teach you for wanting Parkour indoors 😛
    • Are you thinking of Bens R32? I don't remember if his went through the bonnet itself, but it went through the chassis rail. Brad (RISKIN) bought it, and turned it into a track car. It's funny how anti people are of Jim Berry now. I remember when I pulled mine out (during an engine change) and inspected it and found it cracking badly. At that point in time so many people were even on SAU, were so pro Jim Berry, and that was after Bens GTR exploded his quite publically.
    • That's one of the reasons I got that breed, they look weird, the other reasons are they small, they are very vocal, and run around like they are on crack, I didn't want a breed that just sits around, these two are like kids on red cordial  My daughter has one, and it's a laugh riot, constantly doing Parkour around the house, sits on her shoulder, plays catch, and constantly runs around the house taking turns chasing the dog around, her Bermese though, just lays around with constant bitch face, and just looks on in utter disgust at the cat and dog playing together 
    • I'm getting PTSD flashbacks seeing that name again.  With my turbo swift, I got 1,500km of street use on a Jim Berry clutch before it exploded and took out my input shaft with it.
