Garret turbo / water cooled / ball bearing / 5.9
Has anyone here had any experiance with the Garret "stage one" turbos for the Cummins 5.9 ? If so what was your experiance?

I can agree with everything ah64id has posted above. A lot less smoke and heat overall with this turbo. I run the Smarty Sr and it helped with exhaust temps. I can spool without issue at 7,000ft+.
Both Edge and Quadzilla were horrible for extreme exhaust temps.....
...and I hope they don't discontinue this turbo cause it just works on the trucks that actually "Work"! The friend of mine sells a lot of these, so I assume he would know. I picked up a spare cartridge last year, so I'm covered either way!
Funny to see all you knuckleheads from the Cummins Forum over here too....
