New Dezod turbo setup... NEW PICS - Installed and running!!
Finally got the new turbo in. And now I'm letting the cat out of the bag. We are working on my built motor to run some serious amounts of boost. But why not try out another turbo combination on my tired engine haha?
The choice was made. An order was made. We have a turbo that spools as fast as a T28 but flows more air than a Stage 5 turbonetics hybrid. It's a new turbo from Innovative Turbo Systems. The turbo choice is the F2 Series dual ceramic ball bearing T3/T04E 54 trim. It has a retail price starting at $1995 online and prices go up from there. This turbo is the PERFECT turbo for a tC motor. Spooling super fast and flowing the air it needs up top should you end up porting the head. I'm installing it now, it should only take a couple hours to do. Here's some pics, a video showing you how well the turbine moves, and a blurb from Innovative. Expect real videos in the next two days. Hopefully tonight.

F2 54
Item Number: F2 54
Features:
F2 54 Stage 5, The F2 54 Ballbearing turbo is versatile, equally at home on large displacement/lower rpm engines as it is on higher rpm small displacement engines. Same quick response and awesome drivability as other F2 Series turbos. Made for engine displacements of 2.0L to 2.4L, it’s ideal horsepower range is 325 to 460HP (gasoline engines). Please use note section in shopping cart to indicate engine specification for large displacement options.
This Innovative Ballbearing F2 Series turbo features;
· F2 Dual Ceramic Ball Bearing System
· ITS Big Shaft option for strength
· ITS 10 bladed Turbine Wheel
· Inconel for high EGT durability
· Redline balancing
· Highest mechanical and adiabatic efficiency available
· 76mm (3.0”) Compressor inlet/ 51mm (2.0”) discharge with hose connection
The F2 Series of ballbearing turbochargers from Innovative Turbo Systems features the latest design, including improved stability, improved dampening, redesigned ceramic ballbearings, improvements to the oiling structure and upgraded alloys throughout. Main benefits of the above improvements is improved durability, less vibration and noise.
All components meet rigorous quality control, each turbo is assembled by experienced turbo technicians, taking the utmost care to ensure Innovative’s exacting tolerances are met. Innovative Turbo Systems is the only manufacturer to produce a line of Dual Ballbearing Turbos that can be rebuilt and upgraded.
Web Price: $1,995.00
INSTALLED - UPDATE 1
Sorry guys I know the bay is filthy... Had a pretty rough couple of weeks recently. Car runs very strong. I'm not running the water cooling yet because I ran out of time but expect to see that installed soon too. Not sure if it was mentioned before, but this is a fully watercooled turbo, that can still run dry as long as you let it idle for a min or 2 after driving. Boost is instantaneous. In vac idle if i rev it lightly I can get the BOV to go off a few times. In gear it's very smooth with even more top-end than my turbonetics.

They built this in direct response to the GTK. It's supposed to be the ultimate. The live cut-away model that they had at the PRI show blew Paul away so he's been sold on the Innovative turbo's ever since.
Only thing different in terms of mounting is the oil system. The oil return uses 3/8"-16 bolts instead of the T-netics metric, and the oil return flange needs to be drilled out accordingliny (the one that ships with our kit) in order for everything to mate up. Innovative does not ship with oil pressure restrictors so we installed a Turbonetics one and it fit perfect. New pics shortly.

The BB on this I feel is 2nd to none because it can be rebuilt over time as well. No other BB can offer that.
The cut away model was unreal! The average turbine wheel, if spun by hand spins for approx 1 sec or so, but this freely spins for 4-5 seconds longer by hand as Joe demonstrated. Imagine this with 2.4L putting it along.......Can we say zero lag?

Because if it is rebuildable, it means that u can just replace the bad part and go on with the same turbine, instead of spending obsene amounts of money for a new one.
