    So just to make the point clear 75, here is something that shows their sizes AREN'T the same.

    But I was looking for some firsthand experience.

    well ball9999 just saying this now from anything from the chat before this is a nice comment if you are looking for some firsthand experience the thing i would do is send turbo a email and ask them they might know if they dont they will say they dont but they will never msg you that they dont know before they msg you back they will try to figure it out.

    One thing to point out is that turbo uses a number system on sizes, that's what they are comparing. The sizes are basically the same, but different companies can have differences do to the tolerances they use.

    Also grips size can feel different in the ball, depending on how sharp or worn the bit was that drilled the hole.

    You said 9/16 = 9/16 and so it'll be exactly the same.
