those were the go to china cheapy for a long time. they spool kinda slow compared to other units out now. but they are cheap and very durable. it can definitely make that power level though.

The turbine is an excellent size for stock bottom LS. You won't get a lot of back pressure building as boost and RPM increase. Car will get better fuel economy if you care about such things. I haven't seen a larger T4 turbine. I only wish the compressor was a little bigger (75mm) and it would be perfect for my stock bottom LS2. KFXGUY is trading the larger compressor for a smaller turbine. I'm sure he sees boost quicker than I do. CarCraft did a build with a similar 7875 turbo that spiked high PSI quickly but then tapered off as RPM increased. Still, they made 1000hp with it.

Hi,
just a question, is there anything stopping me mounting the turbo hot side vertical so that the divided t4 flange is vertical and the two banks come in from the side?
dont see any pictures of this but if the oil inlet outlet is still top and bottom then is there a problem doing it this way?

then 3" cold side to an intercooler, cant fit the normal 31" wide one in, would have to be smaller...
