Its not being shipped yet.. thats what I was told.. I'm fairly certain that this upgrade is similar to what buschur is attempting to do.

If anything its probably the Ti turbine wheel and 10.5 compressor housing..

Thats what I've heard.. However I think the 20G setup is pretty specific and possibly exclusive to Buschur..

Whatever it is, I'm still wanting a 20G.. must get 20G..

Yeah I have read through the thread. I have followed the 20g upgrade thread and am waiting for the results like half the members on this board

I was just wondering the spec of this turbo. But looks like that was answered.

Now why would you or anyone want 400+ hp car (on pump gas and ecu reflash)













When this thing hits the streets our cars will be insane... The fq400 as we know is a 3.5sec 0-60mph car. It can toy w/ a Murcielago on any track (keeping up in the straights). And best of all, you can pack up the family and go grocery shopping... Slightly but lets continue in this thread by listing cars capeable of 3.5 or sub 3.5 0-60 mph times and their prices.

1) Evo 8 GSR (20G upgrade) ~$30,000 all in.
2) Porshe Carerra GT 0-60 4 sec ~ $350,000
3) McLaren F1 0-60 3 seconds ~$1,000,000
4)

Its not a bolt-on swap.. thats why you haven't really seen much about it.. The 20G hybrid or any of these twin scroll revised turbos will bolt on to the stock hardware, drive more or less like stock, and should have similar reliability...

Is there something between you two that we don't know about? Seems a little extreme.

With the aftermarket 20g, I'm sure you have to get another wastegate. Other thing is that I don't know if they'll fit under there.

I don't know, I'd like to hear from someone who's done this before maybe...
