AGP Turbochargers

i ordered an AgP rs49t, they were very freindly people, and easy to work with, i was kind of mad that i was charged 70 dollars tax because i live in AZ but AGP isnt the blame for that one. I got my turbo, oil lines, and gaskets very quick, and everythign was boxed very nicely. I was a little dissapointed when i woke up and looked outside and saw a box just sitting there with a turbo i spent a grand on and no one had to sign for it, but then again that is not AGP's fualt. evyerhting looke dcherry and very well packed. My last complaint about the whole thing was tehre was no instructions with the kit and the oil drain was a pita to get to fit.

Overall it was a good experience and i would definatly order from them again, and i love the warrenty, and im only 100miles away from them, so if anything goes wrong i can just drop it off at their place.

I plan on ordering the same turbo in the near future. When you get a chance please write a review about that turbo.
My friend has an RS49t, its a damn good turbo. With the proper supporting mods and a good tune, you'll hit 11s easily on racegas.
i ordered the same turbo and also the AGP FMIC w/ short route piping 2 months ago, recieved the turbo quickly and it was packaged nice. My only complaint with the install was also the Oil drain line....ended up bending the line a bit to fit better but over all im very happy with it. My car only has a base line tune with many supporting mods and it pulls like a bat out 'a hell on only 18psi!! very very nice turbo. Thanks to AGP and the guys there for a great kit!!

Lemme guess... ups?
yup it was ups, i told them to not leave anything at my door step anymore, because i dont live in the greatest neighborhood.

So far i love this turbo, it is paired with a SBR stage 2 ported manifold and im getting full boost at 3600, im on 12 psi right now till i get some bigger injectors, but it still feels decent, i cranked it up to 14 last night it felt great till about 6000 when i hit fuel cut, right now im running 550's afpr and 255walbro, the 550's are definatly to small for this turbo. it is definatly alot nicer than my s16g and 2g cracked exhuast manifold, it boost a lil quicker so i am definatly not complaining about the spool lol and daily driving is great, the power is more instant and i have liek 3-5 psi by 2400 rpms, before i would hit full boost(17psi) at 4400-4800

yeah the oil drain line was a PITA to get fitting just right, but with a lil effort and a good 45 minutes of cursing it got on there, it would of been so much easier if i had a lift or some good jack stands.

Ill write up a good review once i have the supporting mods to really show the true potential of this turbo, probably next week sometime, im ordering injectors from extremepsi monday,

fiveSFE- NICE! can't wait for your review, let us know how that baby pulls with the new injectors!! youll have a grin from ear to ear i promise ya that!! Especially on the freeway when you just stomp on it in 4th and it puts you back into your seat like it would in all the lower gears!

haha i cant wait, i ordered 760's from extreme psi, hopefully they will be here soon, i just tuned a bit with the 550's and im able to push out 18pounds of boost, with high timing, and 1-6 counts of knock, and my injectors are at 92percent dutry cycle. im going to try to take it to track on saturday, depending on when i get off work.
50 trim's are the best street pump gas turbo's out there !

I had their rs49 not the turbonetics turbo and I just loved it at 20psi pump gas on my 1st pull and only pull on the dyno I hit 330whp!

my mods where
rs49 (50 trim)
PTE 680cc injectors
Walboro 255hp FP
AFC 1
Eprom ECU w/TMO Stage 3 chip
RNR Racing 3 inch o2 elimnator down pipe w/atmosphere dump
3 inch thermal cat back
ACT 2600
Fadanza flywheel
RRE FMIC (20x10x3) Custom piping w/greddy type R bov
magnecore 8.5 wires
NGK BPR7es gaped at 26

That was it ! my best 1/4 mile time was [email protected] on street tires / pump gas/and FWD (97 GST)

got the bigger injectors in today, having a lil bit of trouble finding time to tune, im on 17 and a half psi right now and it screams, i need to crush my bov or try out the dodge garage mod to get it to hold to 20.
Did you go with internal or external wg? Definately keep us posted after you get the injectors installed.
i went with the external on the wastegate, since thats how my car is setup. the injectors are installed, im still on 17psi right now on a very crappy tune, im thinking of upping the boost to 19ish tonight and tuning for a little bit, it depends on how tired i am once i get off work. Right now the car is really fast.
i heard the rs49t is not so good(dsmtuners) i am between that and the Precision BB 50 trim, and what size injecectors are good for a50 trim, and do I need a different computer?
Personally, I had a really bad experience with AGP (well, with Kevin in particular) about 2-3 years ago. I vowed never to purchase anything from them - although they do have good stuff.
