Just an update guys,i've finally finished my build and started tuning yesterday,i will post dyno sheets once i finish tuning it and have more runs to get a good average,so far it put down 517hp and 438tq at only 22 psi on my fully built 2.4LR,it feels really strong and turbo looks really promising to say the least.

This is a very good option to install,a friend of mine has one in his evo,the only thing with this one is that the center housing backplate needs to be machined to accept the bigger blade,any turbo shop can do that for like $50.00 plus balancing,it's not a direct bolt on,very cost effective still.

Mine is still doing great,i've had it on for over 9 months and i've been beating on it most of the time and still don't see anything starting to go bad, no shaft play or nothing, it's running at 30 psi daily.

So all in all this turbo is great for the price, but how would you guys compare this to Fp Green HTA73 jb which is almost twice the price ? Ive been thinking of getting the Green HTA73 jb but ive ran across this thread. It looks like you can make the same power on both.

I think is possible, it's gonna be harder on 91 though for sure , it will all come down to your supporting mods and tune, if your engine is almost stock i don't think it will do it, the turbo is a great bang for the buck, i also made 430 on 93oct when i still had a lightly modded 2.0 , my car is making 510 @ 30 psi on 93 on a fully built 2.4LR right now, i wouldn't go as far as to say that it's better than an FP turbo but then again it doesn't cost almost 3 grand like an FP turbo,it all depends on how much are you willing to spend to get you're desired hp number,i know personally of cars with FP greens,red and blacks that are not putting the same numbers this turbo puts down, and i haven't even done E85 yet, let me know if you need any more info.

Well I do have a stock 2.0 with all the mods in my sig making 352whp@22psi on 91oct last time it was dynoed. I was kinda skeptical about this turbo(cause of the price) but ive been reading alot and so far on Nasioc theres nothing but good reviews. Im gonna try this turbo for $800 instead of $1600 next year on my tax return ha!

I just picked one of these up, too, after reading about it @ this price - Im currently on a Tomei arms and tuned for 93/e85. Anyone see any reason not to swap this on this weekend and plan on getting tuned a little while later? or better off to wait and get it tuned right after the install? id like to get a fresher/larger set of injectors for the final tune, as i think these are about 4 years old and 850ccish and just want the piece of mind on new fuel setup
