Does anybody on WRXATL have a Blouch turbo? I was just wondering how they compare to other turbo brands with quality and there ability to make power, maybe some of the tuners can chime in. They seem reasonably priced compared to other big names.
Blouche would be the only stock mount turbo I'd buy now that Deadbolt is gone. Otherwise, I'd call Ball or Sargent.
when I was researching turbos, the dom 2.5 and dom 3 looked really nice. I'm not sure of the company themselves, but all the reviews I read showed great promise.
for almost about the same cost or little extra you can go rotated. I was going 20g before then calculated all cost, my s256 setup costed almost the same.
Blouch Evo3 16g with Topmount Intercooler vs my Deadbolt 18g with FMIC and headers Both tuned by Topspeed. The lowest power is the 16g tuned by Doug, the middle power is me tuned by Doug. Both Doug tunes done on same day. Both of us have same mods with the exception of what is listed above. Both are boosting 26 psi and both have over 100K miles. The most powerful is my Maddad headers addition and retuned by SS.
He was happy go lucky that day until the trip home.....the 18g put a serious hurting on him 5 times back to back.
