Why do people think the IX comes w/ a 20G?

Probably because they see people throw around the term "Evo9 20g".

I swear i dont kno but i thought the IX had a 20g couple of months back and then i was corrected. The IX doesnt have the 20g it has a 16g6 (< i forget the correct turbo). But i was fooled that it had a 20g, someone in the beginning spreaded that rumor or ppl got confused on a IX dyno'ing with a different turbo the 20g instead of the stock turbo.

LITE SPD works, sells MITSUS in Milwaukee. He told me it is a 20G.. For more info. PM him. The manual that the techs use states that it is a 20g.

THen he doesn't know what he's talking about, and no, the Mitsu manual does not say it's a 20g.

From the Mitsu website:

Turbocharger Type:
RS: TD05HR-16G6-10.5T (Twin Scroll Turbine)
IX: TD05HR-16G6-10.5T (Twin Scroll Turbine)
MR: TD05HR-16G6-10.5T (Twin Scroll Turbine)

Farmer, you just posted the information that I linked. I didn't think posting it all unformatted would be as good as pointing to the official page.

The IX turbo is **NOT** a 20G.. There is an aftermarket turbo out there (buschur racing) which uses an upgraded compressor wheel that is called a 20G.. but they are not 20G's.. The designation for the turbo is TD05HR-16G6-10.5t, the turbo is roughly the same turbo that all Evo's have had since the twin scroll was introduced.

Anyone who tells you the IX has a 20G is either lying or misinformed..

I apoligize too, I read a post someone stating that the Evo Helms manual says its a 20g. Either I misread it, or whoever posted it had misinformation.
