Re: MHI releasing new evoX turbo at SEMA 2012

Billet of the same material is actually stronger than cast, the graining structure in the metal lines up better. In this case that allows thinner blades for better flow and spool. The part I don't like about billet is the ridges created on the surface of the blades. I have seen marketing try to pass it off as a positive, but I don't see how it could be.
