Yes the FI EZ 94mm uses a Billet compressor wheel and we are finishing the work on the DBB version as well. Turbo is flat out awesome....put down 1591rwhp on a 2JZ race engine, on boost only so far and had more to go as outlet temps of the compressor were still under 220 deg F. The DBB version will be awesome.... Pics are coming this upcoming week.

Turbo is direct swap for GT47, GT55, and Thumper units. Turbo uses 94mm comp wheel, 114mm turbine wheel.

Are the covers for the FI-94EZ in yet, and ready to be shipped?

It's hard to see the difference in exhaust wheels from the pics.
