If i dont have any fitment issues, i will report that back to them and then they will go up on their website

No, their supplier had an issue with Fedex. Aparently, vulcan turbo hasnt gotten their restock in yet. As soon as it does it will be shipping same day Air to DTP

Also i asked precision turbo what the CFM rating on the T60-1 hifi w/ ceramic ball bearings was via e-mail.... i got a responce back with this....

mine came that way as a option, but you can port the turbo, i know the DSM guys do it alot, i didnt read up on it, but something about a bigger flapper??? what ever the **** that is, an portng it to a certan size, idk, but is ported, i can tell, they did a 1/2 as joob keeping it smooth on a part of the turbos exhaust exit, part of it still has the iron cast look instead of the smooth look the rest of it does, oh well

The flapper is the wastegate flap. porting that at least to me seems to only help boost creep if anything.

do you need the fitting for the oil feed?

12mm, 1.75 pitch.

i can send you a drilled bolt that works perfectly from my work shop, all you or your shop would have to do is weld on your AN fitting for your oil feed and be done with it.

might save you some time, its worked on my car for many miles.
