Stock turbo mods?
- Thread starter Builtlngbd

What type of mods are you looking to do. Other shops have machined out the compressor housing and put 2.6 wheels on them. Danville does alot of mods to stock turbos, as does Fleece. Then there is the bolt on Garrett AVNT 4094.
IIRC correctly I can get you one for $2600-$2700 but it's been a little while since I got someone a quote on one. So for about the same price as the Cheetah or Danville chargers you get a brand new Garrett engineered turbo and you get to keep or sell your stock charger.
is there any mods that can be done to the stock turbo? Other than buying a cheetah
i-fog
The i-fog doesn't do anything to the stock turbo except spray water into it. This guy is asking about moving more air with the stock turbo in his twin setup, which your i-fog won't even work it.
Twins are even more of a case for chemical intercooling, tween stages.
There is no cheap fix for mismatched twins, which is probably the case here.

Danville's Stage 2 use Jon's vanes with a Garrett AVNT turbine wheel.
Correct, you get a completely new turbo and they could care less what you do with your used stock one. The other places send you a modified, used, stock turbo (for about the same price) and want your stock one to modify for the next guy.
I've never bought anything from him at all so I don't know if this even works. I'm definitely not a rocket surgeon though. Just trying to answer the question.

For what it's worth, i like my Danville stage 2 in the MPI compound setup, though if he made something bigger on the exhaust side (which the Garrett 4094 AVNT is NOT) - something that flowed better, i'd take it. My turbo was supposed to have been brand new before danville worked on it - but i didn't inspect it close enough to know for sure whether it was or wasnt.
I think the hold up with my turbo and any of the AVNT isn't on the compressor side. Its on the exhaust side. Improve that flow and you've gained a ton IMO after all my 'testing' the past year. Still hoping something new hits the market very soon that improves on the exhaust side.

Our original 71mm exducer turbine flowed better than the AVNT 69mm exducer that we use now but it holds up better. I have a 71mm and 73mm turbine built to try in a cheetah next.
Which holds up better, the original 71 or your new one
, I think I have one of the originals in the 71 version and its still in service (trouble free) 
X2, Zach. I offer both and prefer to built the brand new ones. I am still working on the next level stuff and Zach is at the top of the list for it.:thumb:
I'm sure you could do better, but all we may end up with is a re-badged set of twins from someone else...
