[s-cars] installing a hybrid turbo

[djdawson2 at aol.com]

You might notice that I said "big" ball bearing turbo.  The reason I did, was because the big ones don't like small engines running high boost, because this equates to surge.  Surge experienced regularly usually amounts to bearing failure over time.

 I've got 30k on my 3071 Garrett Ball bearing. I must be the luckiest guy alive.

Jim,
Yeah... you let me know when you've got 30k miles on your FIRST big ball bearing 
turbo  ;-)  I am a real believer in the performance of the GT-R series turbos, 
just not the longevity.
