Is this priced in the same neighborhood as the green, red turbos?

The turbine housing is just the Mitsu 10.5, right?

I read that they cast it themselves but it is listed as a 10.5? I have no idea since I havent seen one in person and measured.

Wow, if indeed this is so, then it would be the first bolt-on turbo with a non-factory turbine housing. In fact, both housings would then be unique as well as the compressor and turbine wheels, right? Are there any pics of the turbine housing available to see?

I do not have the dyno sheets with me. I will get some overlays with the green to post up. it spooled a couple hundred rpms sooner then the green. Im not exactly sure of the temperature differences from the green dyno chart to the tomei chart. I have driven with the green setup in 30 degree weather, and i just came in from some "street testing" in ~40 degree weather. The car has never felt faster on the green than it feels right now on the tomei, hands down. It pulls very noticeably harder up top, and the midrange on this thing is incredible. I will do my best to get the dyno sheets up tomorow.

Very impressive numbers! May have to upgrade the Green...

I'd actually be interested to see what this would do on pump and not E85.

so this turbo has a:

61mm 11 blade Turbine Wheel (thats similar to a GT30R size)

with a

52.5mm 6 blade 60 trim compressor wheel (similar to a 20G size)

How does this measure up to the Green vs BBK vs FP Red???
