For the last 7 years or so, I've been noticing how few warranty claims we've been having on Turbonetics turbos. Especially compared to higher claims from other brands. Yet many people don't believe me or reference reliability issues that probably stem from a reputation from turbos they used to make 10+ years ago.

Here is a turbonetics application where reliability standards are at their highest, multi million dollar drone.

This was taken on our hot gas test stand during a 50-hour endurance test. This is one of our high pressure ratio (5.2) titanium compressor wheels for this high altitude application and our legendary ceramic ball bearing system. Doing our part to protect the troops!!
