I have used it its a great deal if you have a bad Evo 9 turbo.
However I would just upgrade to an hta73 for around 800 bucks if money isnt an issue.
HTA71 and E9 the power difference isnt that great but similar spool.
I managed to get 34 PSI at 3700 RPM

I'm running it for auto-x and I really like the turbo. For a 2.0L it's very well suited and I'm using my ported 9.8cm hotside for a little extra spool. No issues with fitment and no lines to buy. I got my CHRA brand new from FP for $500. I couldn't pass up the upgrade for the price over the stock early VIII turbo.
FYI, these turbos don't have the best record for longevity especially at 27+ psi. I would recommend doing some more searching on the turbo and judge for yourself. For me, my car is primarily used for auto-x and as such really doesn't get driven much. I knew the risk and still said screw it due to the insanely cheap price.

Thanks for the input. Mine is pretty much a track car that I drive with NASA. I'm currently at 28psi on E85 on the stock IX turbo. I would like to keep it the same. I really like the BBK Full but this upgrade will flow just as much and costs 1300 less. That was the main reason I was interested in it.
