Pros vs. Stock IS38 Turbo

Feature Garrett PowerMax Stage 2 Stock IS38
Power Ceiling Up to 600BHP+ Approx 380-400BHP
Bearing Type Dual Ball Bearing Journal Bearing
Heat Resistance Extreme (G-Series Tech) Standard/Limited

Note: While the PowerMax Stage 2 offers significantly more top-end power, the stock IS38 may provide slightly faster spool-up at very low RPMs. However, the PowerMax's efficiency more than compensates through the mid and high range.
