Precision 6776RE vs. 6776RS

They are the same turbos with different compressor housings.
E - means it is a 3'' inlet and 2'' outlet compressor housing.
S - means it is a 4'' inlet and 2 1/2'' outlet compressor housing.
There is some good reading in this thread below, go to reply #8 and it will explain it all.

I was told about 15hp up top.

would the smaller housing have a quicker spool?

Housing alone is not going to affect spool... at least that's my understanding.

if that's the case then it would be a bad idea to get the smaller housing unless the money for the 4" inlet and such would be a problem...

Oh, so you were thinking the bigger housing would cause more lag? No, spool-up has more to do with A/R ratio etc. The bigger housing will just allow the turbo to use a larger volume of air on the top end.
The only common issue with a 4" inlet turbo is that you will probably need an IAC angle plate to get the connector out of the way.

I really wasn't sure how that all worked out. It seems like the bigger housing has no downside performancewise. I am looking at 67 bb turbos for a Christmas present maybe, gotta tell the wife which one I need before long

Wish my wife would get me something for my car. She says she will NEVER get me anything for my car.

Ah mine is normally like that too. I took her to the ford buick shootout and showed her pacemkr's, disco stu's cars and some others and she saw how much I wanted my heap to pull the tires off the ground and take off like a black rocket

Yeah, who DOESN'T want a 67bb at this point. I've been drooling over them for weeks and just can't come up with the money to do it. Would have to do bigger injectors, probably bigger intercooler, updated chip, water/oil lines to install it properly... a lot more than just $1300 for the turbo. But I'm sure I'll give in eventually.
Did you know there's an even bigger housing? H cover, 4" inlet, 3" outlet. That's what I want!
At the top of this page is the "IAC Angle Boss" you will most likely need if you get the 4" inlet...

I have the RH version, wish I could tell ya the difference in spool up ect compared to the RE/RS.
Basically when I was ordering it, the main thing is if you have a 4" intake tube to mate to the 4" inlet (I have a 3-1/2" maf pipe from previos turbo) and if you have 3" IC tubing to mate to the outlet for the RH version. Not that big of a deal making it work with adapters. I don't believe there is a price difference between the RS/RE/RH series. I would imagine to get the full effectivness of the RH, you would need a 4" inlet (MAF) pipe and 3" IC tubing, but again, I have nothing to compare it to. You will need an IAC angle boss to clear the 4" inlet tube.
Way I see it, why not go ahead and go big, gives ya more room to grow with it. I definately have no spool issues with the RH.
Just a side note, I had to port the internal WG hole to get the boost down, some have said they did not, but mine came with a 1" hole, my puck is 1-3/8" so there is quite a bit of material that needs to come out.

I did not ned the IAC angle boss. I just put a 45 degree angle hose coupler and it worked great.
C'mon Turbo6 Chicago.....go mow some lawns, bag some groceries at the food store, deliver newspapers...theres something you can do for some extra $$$.
Never mind...do like I did...put it on your cedit card.Similar threads
