Tomioka Racing Hybrid VF54 Turbo Upgrade

Any thoughts on this one for the gen 5

My turbo its making a weird noise. (Maybe leak, maybe bearing)
I haven't investigated yet but looking at options.

So I've been trying to find out a little more on this. So basically it's a stock turbo with a modified turbine wheel.

There add below states it can make 279kw with,exhaust , injectors and pump does this sound like BS .
They're saying this was in a car but if it's correct would this be KW at the flywheel?

And how much can the gen 5 engine safely produce on stock internals?

It is tuned on E85

Have done them on stock turbo with E85 making high 240's no issues so a billet wheel and bigger exhaust wheel would get it to 280's. It is an American dyno though so it reads higher than most local dynos here

Nice an extra 80kw would be pretty nice, though don't have e85 here. I live out in the sticks! So 98 is my only option. I'll send you a pm about an etune to ge me started once the bolt on's are done.
