My question is if there are any niche turbo makers or turbo modifiers in the US?

I know that there is only 4 companies in the world who make turbos:

Trust / Greddy
Mitsubishi
IHI
KKK

A lot of companies modify these to suit their tastes. HKS for example buy theirs from Trust. IHI is a very small manufacturer who makes very good high quality turbos.

Recently seen the Mitsubishi HI turbo lineup and was really surprised at how many they make!! I don't get why people that replace turbines on Evos usually just stick to the HKS/garrett 28 series?? Mistsu has loads of choice and for each turbo you can specify if you want titanium or steel internals!
