1. is this a garrett turbo turbo?

This is a brand new aftermarket turbo, we are the manufacturer of this turbocharger.

2. does this a drop-in replacement turbo?

For BA/BF Falcon XR6, FPV F6/TYPHOON/TORNADO and Territory---Yes.
For FG Falcon XR6/G6E, a simple adjustment of the turbo clock might be required.

3. what can I benefit from billet compressor wheel?

The biggest advantage of billet compressor wheel(vs cast compressor wheel) is it is machined on a 5-Axis mill, the wheel can be designed much more aggressive to get better aerodynamic. The nose and hub can be designed significantly smaller to allow for a greater  blade diameter,  the blades can be machined much more complicated to  increase blade surface area, which can flow more air into the  engine.

4. why do I need to buy a dual ball bearing replacement core?

There are quite a lot journal bearing ones on the market, they are cheaper, but for sure you will have some performance decline when you use them to replace your factory core as factory one is already a dual ball bearing turbo. Because, the ball bearing system offers a number of benefits over traditional journal bearing system.

-Firstly, it absorbs much less power. As all bearing systems are “parasitic”, they use some of the power generated by the turbine wheel to “drive” the bearing system. This then leads to the major benefit. The “time to boost” aka turbo lag is dramatically reduced, to give exceptional response to driver demands when needed.

-The second major benefit is the durability of the turbocharger, the ceramic ball bearing is originally used in the aircraft industry, the ball bearing cartridge gives better damping and control over shaft motion, allowing enhanced reliability for both everyday and extreme driving conditions. In addition, the opposed angular contact ball bearing eliminates the need for the thrust bearing commonly a weak link in the turbo bearing system.

5. what is the working pressure of the actuator, what's the size of the waste gate port?

The working pressure of the actuator is 7PSI, the waste gate port size is 28mm, flapper size is 32mm.
