What bearings would you use in a turbo application. What about coatings on bearings. Thanks Brian W.

There are lots of bearings in cars. Can you be a wee bit more specific?

What feets was trying to say was which bearings? Turbo, main, rod, cam, wheel, pilot, etc.

What onyxba said in second post was rod and main bearings, to be specific didn't know a decoder ring was needed. Sorry for the question i asked. Did not give engine description as i was asking as a general rule of thumb at to what bearing is recommended for a turbocharger application? Brian W.
