BW hasn’t put any delevopement into large turbine versions of the S400 for a very long time, so what real gains have there been?

Most aftermarket garrett turbos aren’t ideal for anything outside of the gas market, I would love to try a GTX5018 on my 3406, but It’s only offered with an 88mm inducer which isn’t needed at all, not to mention the cost.

So if I am looking at what would be available I lean toward the 97/92mm HX60, the turbine does much better than the 96/88 of the S400.
