Looking for some insight on turbo upgrades for my s60 12.7 ddec 4. I read the bw 171702 who is a airwerks turbo as well, is a good upgrade. In doing a search I find a couple different versions. I'm wondering if someone can enlighten me on the proper turbo an a good place to get it? I'm in Canada. Also is it a straight bolt
on? Thanks in advance

02 is a straight bolt on turbo, but it is a wee bit large for a stock tune. The 171701 is a lower hp turbo but will spool quicker. What hp is the engine? I believe the 01 is recommended for 470 hp and lower, 02 for higher.
Western turbo in Winnipeg should have stock, and they have decent prices too. -
http://www.thetruckersreport.com/tr...ion-modification-deletion-threads-please.html Is the airwerks model the new version of the 02? I'll give western turbo a call tomorrow. I had dealt with them once before and their prices seemed high but it was for a car turbo an maybe I was off on what I thought it should be.

Sorry stock is 430/470 right now but you can't tell the extra 40 hp your suppose to get with cruise on. I'm hoping the tune an a turbo won't hurt my mileage as it's fairly decent right now.

I paid $650 on eBay for the 171702 new. I have a ecu tuned and dynoed 560hp and 1660tq to the ground. I've been keeping a average 7.3 or so mpg. If you do a lot of stop and go you will probably want the smaller turbo.

We don't get those lovely deals in Canada on eBay. Shipping and import fees suck. I ordered the 02 yesterday for $980. Will be in Tuesday. Hopefully I never made the wrong choice between the two. Is the 02 lots more laggy is that why you say that? http://www.thetruckersreport.com/tr...ion-modification-deletion-threads-please.html

http://www.thetruckersreport.com/tr...ion-modification-deletion-threads-please.html Do you have a free flowing exhaust ? I hope the lag is alright as I'm hoping for better drive ability. I get good mileage but soft gravel roads and hill climbs kinda suck.
