but where is the prove ???

if they are proboost turbos off grant they are as good as a garrett and as a fact if u get the 35 40 off grant it is a garrett center ball bearing cartrige as no one else makes bb centers yet but i know hes good for the warrenty but u wont need it seiriously think about it if it has a garrett center and houseings this cleen how is a garrett worth 3 times more also he has a large range of rear houseings ie 0.68 0.86 1.06 1.32 for my t66/t04z and as he says in his add he has turbos gates bov s pumps and all sorts of stuff on lots of high horsepower cars his stuff is proven and lasts have pics if ya havent seen em also all his turbos have 360 degree thrust plates same as garrett and monsta only have 180 degree thrust plates thats y a monsta dosnt last also crap seals
guys both of those turbos are the cheap of the cheap pay 200 more and get one of grants he has his houseings molded and made for him and him only they are monsta lag covers bolted to a water cooled center have a look at grants stuff proboost on ebay dont know how quick he is on there as i just call him but yea msg him will put pics up now

That was me who posted under aquatbats name too. I paid $650 for mine. Its only plain bearing thought. I think it was $200 extra for ball bearing. How can you go wrong same warrenty as garret and 1/3 price
Just got off the phone to my bloke and it is grant who i got mine off. ill post pics up soon

21-10-08, 21:46 GMT+10#11 these are the ones guys grab em and as for the 600 700hp turbo just chance the rear houseing my turbo is only capable of 500hp with my tiny 0.68 rear but put a bigger rear on and it makes more and grant opened my box un bolted the 1.32 rear and bolted on my .68 on and handed it to me that easy same rear wheel thru the range and been proven not so much on rb 30s yet but seiriously even a garrett has warantey claims and i bet u could dig up a thred or 2 of when garrett hasent come good for one reson or another

first off thats not one of grants t66s as the front cover is a different cast ie has those 2 round cast marks near outlet are not on grants t66 houseings and is too shiny grants have the dull garrett look to em not that el cheapo look of a monsta

also i was over grants the sarv and first off the he said that the t66 we are talking about here has a t04z p trim rear wheel with a t66 front cover and his custom front wheel and hasnt had one of these returned yet and come in the 4 rear sizes so theres one to suit everyone
also he has new t66 front wheels on way with maching covers bigger ones as this is the biggest ar70 cover u can get
ar70 only means the outside diameter of the outlet is 2.5" and the inlet is 4"out side diamiter not inside its how much the cover has been mechiened inside that counts and how big the wheel is behind it
as for dyno sheets he is getting me some and ill pick em up after work sataday and will up load strait away
also he made mention a certan white 8 sec qld car on here is running some of his parts (just replacement 044s at this point)but im sure he could vouch for the qlty of grants gear and grants service

They HyperGear's turbos got different turbines wheels and bigger comp wheel. compared mine TR43i with a mate's kkr430. Very good turbos for its price.
is the ebay's Ball bearing GT35 same as:
