Real mens' turbos don't have a piece of metal actuator hanging off the side of them ;)

Quick spool, more focused for the Subaru market whereas the m7960 was aimed for the Evo market.

EDIT: Also the design has been revised meaning you should have less issues :)

The Tomei isn't that expensive?

But as I'm an auto the garret turbos are a bit too big, I need something that can compensate for the fact I will have more lag due to being an auto

Hahaha! You girls are cute! Yes, it would be nice to have an externally gated turbo with a screamer pipe to scare the panties off school girls... But then rotated set up and all... One day... I just want to know what the difference is between the two in terms of performance... 60 and 90... Which one is the biggest that can sit in the factory location again? I think there is one for sale on rice net for $900.00 or something... :?:

Oh, if you want to test drive an auto with the famous Garrett GT28RS with "HKS" internals... Could be bum wee for all i know... Just take the missus car out for a spin... Not worth the headache of a custom up pipe and yukky dump pipe flange... The only thing Nissan that should be on a Subaru is 5x114.3 and TU TU TU TU TU!
