Dont know anything about it, but I can say the marketing name has right away made me very very skeptical... Sounds very "bling ricer-ish" to me.....

Call this number 1 (866) 211-1533 Between 8-5pacific time and ask to talk to Rob Gates about the turbo, I believe he has one on his truck and likes it a lot.

The company that builds them cant get ahold of the needed parts so they're on backorder right now.

Heard of it yes, its been around for a little while, nothing "bling ricer-ish" about it, but I don't have any first hand experience with it.

Cool Twist Turbo

The intercooler they offer has my attention.

Anytime a marketing department gives something a silly name I tend to question the product thats all. "Aero-turbine" muffler... case in point.

Perhaps its a good piece. Whats it built around? A sweitzer, garret???

I believe the cool twist is a modified schwitzer s-300, like the htb2 and Bd super B and the B-1 series turbos are built from s-300 parts
