Thats a bad unit
!
What made you decide using pulasar over the Forced performance turbo ? I know PSR makes some great stuff for a better price but not in this case when you compare the FP turbo im looking at to your current turbo!
I see the compressor wheel has some curve over the FP and a the capability to run a turbine speed sensor from what im looking at ?
Im just excited to see this jeep be built and ripping, Can't imagine the feeling being the one building it
. As well i may snag some of your ideas such as the valve cover since i know i can do that right if i'd like just not the idea of running the GTR coilpacks using the bracket design you made once the time comes (It'll be a while for sure.....gonna need the standalone first!)

I purchased the Pulsar unit during the Black Friday sale, so it ended up costing exactly $1000. Something to keep in mind is that Pulsar turbos come with all necessary weld flanges, gaskets and fittings. Pulsar's price is actually better considering all the parts that come with the turbo.
Also, Pulsar offers way more turbine housing options. Their G series lineup is compatible with Garrett & Tial stainless turbine housings if you want to go stainless in the future.
If I felt like blowing more money on it, I would've went with the new Xona Rotor 8082. Xona is one of few manufacturers that design, cast, machine and assemble all here in the US.

Most US based turbo companies still purchase all castings from China. Precision, China. FI, China. There's no escaping Chinese turbos and Pulsar is known as the best of the bunch.

Right on man,Gotta love the black Friday deals ! Took advantage of it for a Savvy tummy tuck for my Lj
And gotta love PSR with their Interchange-ability! I knew a bit about them since I've seen BMW guys get a Psr core and run their precision coldside/hotsides due to their precision unit failing and so on&so fourth!
Also that's good to know about on the G series turbos,Didn't know that !
Once the time comes i might be running a PSR 3582 .82Ar stainless dual vBand deal! Should be good for my application But I'll see
And marry late Christmas.....or happy new years
