    I've since read alot of issues about comp turbo.. With how they handle things and their turbos reliability being basically roulette.. I bought a CT4X from them and have not installed it yet and wonder if i should just return it before any headaches start and go with a proven Garrett or BW

    IMO if it’s the oil less model I’d send it back and get the BW

    Its an oil fed, but I'm building this to be a reliable everyday driver. And don't want any surprises...

    It's a 68/75 1.15ar

    So if anyone can direct me to a solid proven company with great customer service, please let me know.

    I'm interested in something with ceramic ball bearings too if possible.

    Your on the right track Borg Warner and Garrett are two good companies.

    Any online distributors you'd recommend that carry them?

    I'm 75% sure I'm going to return this comp turbo. Even with the little correspondence I've had with them. It seems they're just in it for the sales..

    I would just call Jose, and see what he recommends.
