Man I think that's going to be awesome turbo, great find. It's got a Clipped - 80mm Inducer / 73mm Exducer turbine and that compressor is the same design I have. I can say first hand it flows big time, even at low boost. I haven't even started to push mine but i'm sure it's going to be silly.
For the money, I think that things going to pack a big punch. I mean less then 1k, heck I wouldn't mind trying it for the "perfect" street BW on a 4.8L. My big brother to that is in my opinion a drag racing setup more fitted for a built block big power. (800 wheel+)

Thanks foose! Yeah im very excited to try this turbo! The compressor wont limit me too much. I know its small but the wheel is designed to flow more air and im very certain this turbo will net me a 10 second pass yet. Its rated at 1000hp!

I don't think it would make a 1000HP on a big v8, I think a 4.8L/5.3L would be the cutoff for flow with the 73mm turbine wheel and strong street manners. However, it should kick some serious butt for it's purpose. For 950 shipped to your door, it would put a hurting on a magnum or turbnetics TC series any day of the week.
Hey if you want me crank 20psi thru her on the dyno and then send it back to you, I have zero problems with doing that.
