Stock Eaton Looked Great!!

I will post some pics of it tomm, but taking it off after 25,000 Hard miles and seeing it look brand new was a plus to me!!!

No flaking Rotors and NOTHING in my intercooler!!!

I guess the 6lber is great for the life of the EATON!!!

Heheh. Cool. Ive got a 6lb'er on right now... I drive it hard every once in a while. Hopefully my S/C'er will hold up as nicely as yours has.

The eatons are very strong and reliable I was spinning my M45 eaton blower on my Miata to 17,750rpm did this for over a year 15,000miles @11psi and had no problems at all the rotors looked new when I changed the outlet manifold.Magnuson(eaton)said that 14,000 was the recomended rpm for the M45 but they did run to 18,000rpm's with no failures.The only thing I suggest is to change the SC oil more often than the 100,000mile interval.The Miata guys changed the oil once a year just to be safe.
