[QUOTE="jimblay, post: 958132, member: 15040"] There are two major differences between the Switchblade turbo and the current VGT's, one is that it has only one extra moving part in the turbine housing vs 30 to 40 in the VGT's, the second is that it is about 20% more efficient than the other VGT's due to the fact that there is practically nothing in the exhaust flow in the open housing phase whereas the others vanes, even in the open position, are permanently in the exhaust flow and the flow has to deflect off them to get to the turbine wheel. Oh and it is currently used in a range of turbo sizes from a TD05 for a Suburu to one for a Caterpillar 3406. The size used is determined by the engine size. [/QUOTE]
