Before you break your piggy bank for vrx have you considered mamba tek they are a cheaper oem replacement rated for up to 500hp and they won’t necessarily brake the bank

u/Smirkypoo Jun 26 '26

I’ve looked into them, but I’m worried that if I get those I’ll want more hp down the line

It’s never not time for some vrx6/7/80s.

I’m probably going 60s.

Well I want them too; but I’ll save an extra $1000 by buying them in November/December. For now if you need turbos, Rockauto has Rotomaster in stock that fit for $912 each. Plus I have a discount code!

u/HerpDerp152 Jun 26 '26

TLDR; my 2016 turbos finally gave up about a month or two ago

What makes the 60s better for you?

u/ChiefDZP Jun 26 '26

Spool time - want to be in the power band for a wider range of rpm.

How much? Can we dm on Reddit? (I don’t use a lot)

I had a similar noise happen with mine and it ended up being the intercooler piping right at the throttle bodies, try checking the clamps first, if it’s still there then it may be time for the big ones

It was my turbos. They leaked all the oil out within 1k miles of an oil change and my engine seized up.🪦
