    Does anybody know if a BorgWarner S410G turbo is the same as the 177148 for a E model Cat ?
    According to this website I'am looking at they claim its the same turbo.. but I would like some input before I comment to buying it..
    I'am wanting to put it on a B model prefix is 7FB.. and the turbo is junk on it now
    Thanks for any info

    Look at a switchblade by Blaylock. I think you'd be happier

    Why? That is snake oil, they take a charger that already works and spools well and add some crap inside the turbine housing that takes away useable area.

    You wouldn't have been any better off, 177148 is a great charger and is a S410G.

    Not in my opinion, works very well, no boost lag, higher boost, and strengthens the force of your Jakes. Don't be so quick to bad mouth something if you don't understand it.
