@momentumworx_: The BorgWarner 171702 changed the turbo industry forever. It may not be the biggest, newest, or flashiest turbo, but it’s one of the most influential ever built. Its compressor and turbine combination became the blueprint that countless aftermarket manufacturers have copied, modified, and rebranded over the years. If you’ve been around diesel performance long enough, chances are you’ve seen a turbo that’s based on the 171702 architecture… even if it didn’t have a BorgWarner badge on it. Some designs become trends. Others become the standard. The 171702 became the standard. Strap in.. because we are just getting started with this one, follow as we dive deeper on the infamous origin story of the S400 🤘🤘🤘 #Turbo #diesel #LS #Tech
I’ve been recommending the 171702 turbo for almost 10 years. Great cost effective option for the series 60 that performs as good if not better than stock for less than half the cost of OEM

The worst part about this turbo is people are slapping them on diesel pickup trucks not realizing they are often paying 2x more for a 40 year old turbo with a billet wheel, than a nice vsracing dual ball bearing g45 costs, it’s hilarious

Great video! You should cover the 17702 vs the k31 for the people. We have to answer that phone call about 10x a week.

I'm running an s475 in parallel with a Eaton 122 as the low pressure chargers in a compound setup, (s366 is the high pressure turbo) didn't even realize it was originally a Detroit 60 series charger
