Hi Miki. Im seeing loads of americian supplied t4 divided flanged turbos with AR\'s in around 0.74 and 0.8. I see you were recommending 1.0 AR. Is the lower AR going to be an issue, if I want to run 1 bar, and looking for approx 360 hp? Cheers.

Well, there are very few people who can really say that they found power limit of given wheel and housing combination. Depends on the turbine wheel itself. If its P-trim, then even A/R of 0.6x won´t have problems to make power which you are after. Share your findings:Talking1 Or did you settled on what I suggested?

I had a look at the 2 garretts, you suggested, but I was hoping to find something cheaper, for the sake of loosing some turbo lifespan, as the car won\'t be covering anymore than 1000 miles a year, so I could live with a turbo with a 20k lifespan, rather than the garrett\'s 60k lifespan. I hear people saying not to buy one of those non-branded obviously chinese built turbos, but noone can tell me why not, other than vague "it will blow up the world..............." warnings..........

Chinese turbo can work, but it can be hit and miss. Don´t forget that you are after response - correctly matched turbocharger is must and unless you know for one hundred percent what you are getting, its not worth it. Maybe try looking in for sale section.

Heres a question lad. Just been offered a brand new IHI RH b6 6t-602 turbo. You know much about them? I cant even get any specs when I googled for it. Cheers again
