    that thing is huge, dude. it has a 4" intake, so that's one hell of a snail. you better be planning to build your cylinders out of diamonds to be able to handle that amount of boost and volume of airflow. you may need a second row of injectors to provide enough fuel for the machine as well. good luck w/ the build.

    yeah i was about to say...that thing looks like a truck style turbo....you will need to rev the engine high to get any boost from it.. i think ppl go with t3/4 turbo.

    yah I have been looking for a t3/t4 hybrid for a while, I'm not going to get any thing that has a 4 inch inlet or outlet. its a 2 liter not 20 liter.(I can lift the whole side of the car up off the ground all by myself, I don't think I need 4 hundred horse.) I want a mild 9 psi and very drivable.

    yeah holy shit thats like a drag supra sized turbo rofl...

    yeah i think a plain old .60/.63 t3, or t3/t4 like mine is plenty for an a20.
