ATP went the cheap route with the bearings and a lot of them fried in less than 20k miles. ATP has some serious quality problems with some of their products.

what? if that statement was true in this case, the gt2x would be far better. Power wise, sure, reliablilty...no.

Im not running the GT2x but i am running the GT2871 they are pricy and fast as hell but the reliablity isnt that great, takes alot of tlc and you better know how to fix stuff yourself.

RE: GT2X Eliminator

gt71r? a gt42r is like a 1000hp turbo. That must be a 2000hp turbo. Bet you wouldnt spool that turbo until 8k. Hope you get nitrous and stroke the engine.
