Has anyone ever purchased from this company? I stumbled across them and did some searching and it seemed like more car guys deal with them. But they have powerstroke turbo parts, more specifically compressor wheels for 6.4's. Any info or thoughts appreciated

I bought a compressor wheel from them for my 6.0.
But the hassle for a compressor wheel,id just do a atmo. Or atleast a batmowheel

Gonna bump this back up... I understand they are not a vendor I am just trying to figure out what "upgrading a cast 66 to a billet 66" would comprise of?
Pretty much just dropping in a billet compressor wheel?

I would think it would be just swapping the wheels out, but in the world of turbos you get exactally what you pay for. I'd be nervous to spin something that hard/fast on the cheap.

Just wondering if it's the wheel and that's all.

So you did this? I did it in my 6,0 and ran their billet compressor wheel and it did a little for me. It was a ton lighter

I have a billet 66 from boostlab. if I didnt get a killer deal on this one I'd just buy a box 66 and send it to barder and tell him to work his magic. Mine has an 11 blade so I think it lacks up top a little bit.

looks a lot like....

I wanted it to make a good amount of difference to justify the cost. Unfortunately I was wrong and didn't really see any difference in it.......for what its worth I had a 360 thrust bearing and got it balanced when I did it. The main reason I upgraded is because the turbo needed to be rebuilt anyway......but I wouldn't do it again.

Just in case this is even relevant... I wanted to mention the picture we have up for the Modded H2E wheel isn't the correct wheel (yet). We just got back from TS when we received our first batch and I haven't had a chance to retake and upload the picture.
Our modded H2E wheel looks like a dinner plate. It's pretty crazy.
