Because it was an existing piece, and stub shaft. The market has gotten quite demanding and consumers tend to cling to things that are "new" or pushed as "performance" items, even if they don't fit the application.

That’s my point with Garrett. They have T6 housings that would probably work with 15 min worth of machining time that would broaden the range of potential uses even if not ideal for the design. I guess that’s just the evil capitalist in me, I’ll sell you a hatchet to chop your own hand off. Guess we’ll just wait for knockoffs on alibaba.

I understood the point you were making, but manufacturers tend to promote the "performance" items toward what they perceive as the ideal market. No need to look on Alibaba, plenty of places stateside are selling knock-offs.

Are shops modifying that stub shaft design for use in the prostock turbos?

The old CDS Pro Stock turbos used a GT62 turbine head that they friction welded a Holset style shaft to for use with the HX82 frame. In later years almost everything is produced offshore as a modified version of some existing design.

Is the HT100 just not viable as a single or is the turbine too large for where they are at?

They use ceramic coating, probably lasts longer as sex lube than piston coating snake oil.

It’s not even about the latest and greatest, more about paying double for mediocre parts.

Hard to be viable due to cost/availability, the ABB RR151/153 is a bit easier to come by.

None of the parts places here can even get a door latch for a ford truck. I bet tracking down cab parts for that is fun.

Where is the blower motor resistor on a 95 t800?

Open passenger door. It’s in the duct work facing the door.
