It appears that they are journal bearing turbos, that can spool up as fast as an equivalent sized BB unit, though there is probably more to it than that???
So.... anyone in the know want to shed any more light on these?![](https://passionford.com/forum/images/smilies/tantpis.gif)
Oh, and they're made by Borg Warner.
Note: Ive only found this lot off a quick google search, I dont know if any of it is right, but some big names are apparently moving over to them...
Interesting stuff though, lets have it.

*Note twin scroll manifold wasn't used so this is based on swapping out a Garret for a BW*
