What are you putting it on? What mods do you have? What's the price?

sounds like a 59mm turbo in an E cover (3" in, 2" out). p trim turbine is fine. the exhaust a/r is big. that will really hurt spool time.

imo- that size turbo will make ~450rw and have decent spool. but that big of an exhaust a/r will make spool a lot slower than it should be. so you will have a fairly laggy turbo with a medium output peaky powerband.

a .58 or .68 exhaust (turbine housing) would be much more suited.

im not putting it on my car yet just figured for $200 might as well buy it instead of pass it up if its gonna do good

No. I can tell that text is copied from ebay. Don't buy it.

Let him know about the He351 cummins turbo MDC he might lean towards it instead of the ebay crap...good luck on the turbo choice:biglaugh:

He needs a whole lot'a fuel and some fabrication to run a Holset....

haha the "rapid spool" part sent off red flags for me! i know that from ebay ads, so don't buy it. ANYTHING with a 1.05 turbine ar will NOT be "rapid spool"ing. pretty much, always be wary of low prices products.

Not ANYTHING (as IJ can attest to) but yeah, that a/r in that housing is too damn big for the turbo.

Also, it's looking like an eBay special - avoid.

the 1.05 is a popular a/r with the rx7 guys. and it does spool pretty quick on those cars. its a rotary, and a little different. but regardless, for a supra thats way too big for that turbo.
