If you want more than a Pure800 can do, you 100% will need to build your transmission, which is a $6k+ expense. Even on a Pure800 going big you will need to.
Oh yes for sure. was counting that in with getting the portinject/manifold etc too. That's why I'm thinking for the tubo i'd rather go straight to something more capable like the Omega 65 or a top mount kit.
I think you are going to have to wait a little bit for this, the turbo has not been out long. I have yet to see anything on the discord about failures though so that is a big plus.
Not the same turbo but you can look at reviews from their kits for the Genesis. Should at least give you some feedback on how their turbos tend to hold up.
I'm curious as well. Something like what Funk Motorsport offers would be sweet to help keep the heat more contained than just using the heat shield that comes with the kit.
I would like to know as well. I saw a video seeing how well the bimmer network heat shield works which is a bit different than the verus one.
I don't think that the extra width in that particular one makes much of a difference compared to the shorter Remnant or Verus shields. The B58 already has an oem shield for the back half of the manifold that works just like the aftermarket ones. The front half only has the shield attached to the intake box and getting rid of that gap from the manifold to the shield in order to contain the heat better is why the aftermarket options are worth it. I'd say let the price make the decision in that case cuz performance should be fairly similar.
Great informational but the real comparison is going to happen when the upgraded turbine housing comes out for the Omega 65 and we finally get the price on the Pure900. Until then, this is as much of an apples to oranges comparison as there can be.
Even if the pure performs a bit better, the reliability of pure is terrible.
