ordered a turbo today

[kirko]

has anyone used owen developments
ive just been on the phone today arranging a hybrid turbo matched to my engine and future requirements
they do alot of development on evo turbos and sound like they know what they're talking about

 

[ashills]

yeah good guys ull get a nicely built turbo should be good did they say which one ??

 

[kirko]

they didnt say exactly which one but its gonna be similar to a gt2871r with a few modifications it should support near 400 bhp without too much lag

 

[campbellju]

How much are they asking for it?

 

[GINGA]

Owen developments specced the turbo for the evo 8 fq400 which gets slated big style by just about everybody for having excessive lag :shock:
Though the 2871r would be a exellent choice for 400hp and good response 8) though you'll probably get ripped buying it from the uk, better to get it from someone like atp turbo for around £700.
