Anyone running one of the new Owen Developements GBT turbos on their cossie?

If so how do you find it and what did you have before it?

Thanks Paul

Ha ha, don’t you start with all that too lol.

Although I may be changing to aftermarket management now, just means the cars off the road for even longer to fund it.

Def no borgs for me

I would only recommend buying a off the shelf turbo from the likes of Borg Warner then precision then Garrett in that order but I would only go with efr anyway lol.
