Bit of a thread revival this...

Are DS Automotives the sole supplier of the above turbo (and the SS45)?

How does the SS42 compare to the Scooby Clinic's SC42 Billet, RCM's RCM420 and Scoobymania/Area 52's ST420?

Ask DS Automotive what they supply.
Never having conducted tests on an SS42, SC42, RCM420 or ST420, I cannot tell you but what I can tell you is that it was a fast spooling turbo in the 400-420 bhp mark for not a lot of money and it looked very attractive. Mine came from the USA.

Cheers harvey.

Yet another 400+ bhp turbo in the melting pot! If that price is still the same, defo the cheapest, for sure. Is it £999 inc. VAT?
