Anyone Here running Master Power Turbo?
MPT-70.
Did me good for almost two years before I bought my 76GTQ.
Never had a problem, and it had its share of abuse! Running the wrong restrictors at first, pushing oil past the seals, smoking oil like crazy, running a bad BOV for a while, all the growing pains of being a turbo newbie.
Of course, it also had its share of runs on the highway at 9 psi.
It was a good turbo.
I've heard of bad quality ones out there.
I've also heard of Master Power having a reputation of being "uncooperative" regarding quality issues, warranty, replacements, shipping, etc.
None of the bad I've heard, however, applied to me.

here's a Master Power update:
My buddies single T70 (18psi boost) 88 stang (2800 pounds) 9.70 @ 141 Powerglide/slicks
Another buddies 97 cobra Twin MP 60's (18psi boost) (3600 pounds) 10.02 @ 147 AODE/Nitto 17" DR's

We use them on 5.3L builds and they work awesome. On a side note we run no restrictor at all. We found the smoking issue to be the PCV vent lie from the valve cover. Dump that to a canister and smoking is solved. Good turbo for the money.

Just to clear the air, I'm not mad at DrTurbo I had no intention of getting on anyones bad side I was just defending what I sell I hope that DrTurbo doesn't take it personal.
I really think that we both have beat this horse to death.
So in conclusion DrTurbo thank you for your input I hope I did not offend you with my rebuttles, but I'm sure you can understand where I'm comin from.
Im gonna drink a beer now...

You spelled rebuttal wrong!!
Haha sorry, I had to do it...
what size is the v-band on the t70/76? the last piece I want to buy is the turbo. once the turbo shows up I want to be fab pipes and be done.
so yeah I plan to run 3" dp, just not sure if I need to get a transition to 3" or not.
thanks
