Are these TS turbine housings a Garrett item or are they something ATP gets for them ?
I'm not so sure Garrett would do a GTX 71.1mm compressor for the GT2871R series , they already have too much compressor in the 56 comp trim version .
I think Garrett is going to run out of cheap solutions once the GTX compressors become mainstream . Really the gap is a bit big between the GT28 NS111 turbine and the GT30 UHP turbine .
For reasons only they know they don't want to use the 60mm (GT30 sized) version of the NS111 9 bladed turbine in their production turbos . It is used in competition spec TR30R turbochargers and would be a great asset in some GT30 based turbos .
Cmon Garrett we WANT that 60mm NS111 turbine for power with response ...

Garrett needs to do a GTX28XXR. If they could manage 45-47 lb/min and an exducer under 65mm, it would be pretty great for the auto-x guys. That GT28 turbine wheel owns. I had a GT2871R and it was pretty wicked. It might be a mismatch, but it still worked well with 25 psi by 3500RPM on a stock block 2.0L. My stock IX turbo doesn't even do that up here.

I could care less about stock frame turbos, otherwise I would get the FP White with the TME titanium turbine wheel. It is off topic, I was just commenting on discopotatoes post.
As for this topic, I don't see how this is a "stock frame" turbo though. At least the FP, HKS and Tomie turbochargers all retain a stock like look despite having non-OEM housings. This thing just has the stock turbine housing flanges and NOTHING else. I don't think these would qualify as "stock appearing."
