Cant see Blouch partnering with a small company in England to research and develop billet wheels purely for one shop to sell, and agree them sole supplier rights.

Sounds like salesman talk....

More than likely they have bworked with and mapped enough of them to be able to know which of the pick n mix list of turbo parts works most effective on a 2.0, with our uk fuel,

Can't see why you couldn't get an exact like for like directly from Blouch if you knew what spec was and asked

As said, depends on the agreements. If blouch are just being employed as a manufacturer and the rights remain with clinic.

Simply put I do not believe you can buy one of the same spec direct from blouch.

moved over to forced performance and very impressed with there turbos so far ,, made over what they said it would so I was pleased and bob rawle also said it was working very well

doesn't seem to be many people with them but I think there a great turbo and they are now stocked at Owen developments so cn be brought in the uk

46s were a bit temprimenal a while back I believe, they changed the spec a few times due to issues, cracking on the housings etc.....

yeah also had one where all the welds on the exhaust housing leaked more or less strait away , reason I won't by them anymore , I undstand the issues have prob been addressed now but all the frustration and time spent swapping turbos has put me off them for good
