<---gt30/76r FTMFW, one of the best 400+hp turbo out

people talk about ball bearing turbo's being bad cause you can't rebuild them......they're designed to last a lot longer than journal turbos.....the only reason you'd blow up a ball bearing turbo is if 1. you don't have the correct oil restrictor in the oil feed. 2. you don't have a good free flowing oil drain, 3. something got caught in the turbo that shouldn't have (ie a peice of weld or valve or something lol)

other than that. your ball bearing turbo should outlast the abuse you put on your motor an easy 2 to 1 therefore putting the "can't rebuild them" idea into the moot point category.

the only t3/t04e's i see are turbonetics ones...and i have yet to see one that makes more power or spools faster than a gt30r. i'm not a fan of t3/t4's
