It provides a way to bolt a aftermarket, larger frame, larger flanged turbo to a exhaust housing/manfold that is made to be used with a twin scroll, 400whp realistic max turbo.

This is a no-no, it works, but you could also jb weld a cracked block together for a week or so to hold it together too...

It's a horrible way to go about a turbo upgrade. If you want a sleeper setup, go fp-red, if you want a 30-35R go with a proper manifold and paint it black.

A Borg Warner S36x with a divided T3 hotside would bolt to it as well, and is capable of 700whp+. That'd be a pretty cost effective setup. I agree that using it with anything smaller than a Red is pointless as there are cheaper bolt-on alternatives.
