    After reading the title of the thread I was sure it was going to be a link to E-bay LOL!!!

    Fair play to the chap who's building that, he must have a fat wallet!

    that's gotta be 100K, why didn't he just use a Mitsubishi engine?

    Hey Ashy, email him and ask if he's using a T2 flange

    I can't really find any info that I'd trust on that turbo, but what I've seen puts it at around GT3071R size - which is pretty small for all that power.

    First thing I spotted. Crude to say, but yes from the look of it it doesnt look big enough.

    Garrett TR30R Compressor housing:
    .60 A/R

    60mm inlet
    50mm outlet


    Compressor wheel:
    45.5mm Inducer
    69.4mm Exducer

    Turbine housing:
    .57 A/R
    50mm V-band inlet
    60mm V-band outlet
    Turbine wheel:
    59.3mm
    52.2mm

    Thats nigh on an old school T34 spec / GT3071

    sounds about right, if it's designed for WRC it'll be optimised for high pressure ratios (due to the restrictor) optimised around 30lb/min. That small inducer is about the size of my Gt28R which kinda backs that up. I bet that'd be an interesting turbo on a GTT.
