Depending on which GT45 it is (there are a couple) It's either a 70 or a 76mm compressor wheel, but they have a much bigger turbine in them so they make more power then a regular 70, 76's.

Sounds great, this guy should like it very much, should be good for him to mess around with while the big lsx and really big twins build is being put together.

Thats right...
To compare:

TC78 Exhaust is 80mm ind / 68mmexd
S400-80 86mm ind / 76mm exd
MP45 88mm ind / 77.5mm exd
PT88 94mm ind / 88mm exd
GT91 94mm ind / 87mm exd

It should make a nice set up...
