Depends what you want, we fit custom rollers for biggers power, comp cars and alike, and DTS kits as std equiptment because they have the better turbo in the kit(TD05 is water cooled and has 360 degree thrusts). Any decent mechanic should be able to bolt a kit, there are installers everywhere, my suggestion would be to go to someone with a dyno so the mixtures can be set for maximum safe power with a pyro.

Most turbos have 270 dgree thrusts, the thrust is a type of flat bushing that absorbs thrust loads. It is an internal part that you can upgrade on a Garrett core which is necessary to run higher boosts and with turbos with large compressor wheels relative to the exhaust. You may have heard of compressor surge, the noise all the Doof Doofs like in their rice burners :lol: It is actually the turbo decellerating very quickly and it puts massive load on the thrusts as the boost that has been generated has no where to go against a closed throttle and the compressor wheel, shaft and exhaust wheel are being pushed out the back of the turbo,(every action has an opposite reaction stuff)
I hope that makes some sense.
