Default Hellion turbos

I know there are several people here running them, but I want some real actual feedback.
Looking at the brenspeed kit myself.

First off, what all boost levels are you running?
Complications on install for you DIYers?
Likes/dislikes?
quality?
reliability?
and of course, anything else that you want to add...

great kit - have had no issues. installed myself in about 15-20 hours, not too bad. Careful with the boost, blew my motor on 11.5 psi. Installing new fuel system this week and upping the boost, going for 600rwhp.

Hope so too...
Since he stroked that mill, I assume it's all forged.I would hate for him to blow it. Ouch!

All forged, cobra crank, iron block. Rated at 950 rwhp, might as well use it.

With Hellion being local for me, and knowing the owner/co-owner, (Dwane James and John Urist), that is the only way to go. I know when I do mine I'll be using Hellion. There are actually a few 197's around here using their system and neither one has had any kind of issues, other than traction anyways.
