Hey I saw a guy using one of these turbos over on the vortex on an 8v turbo build and thought it might be interesting to discuss. Ever since these holsets have been out i've been hankering for a big turbo vs. my little vnt-15 that i'm literally a week away from bolting on.
I've heard mitsu turbo's are similarly built, however the td04-13g is an older turbo so i'm not sure how similar it might be or not. Anyway I happen to have one in my possesion in known good running order, and I'm half contemplating bolting it up in the vnt-15's place. However I'm not much good for reading compressor maps so I wanted to ask around a bit before I decide to sell this turbo or keep it (may sell it and save up for a holset after all

). My interpretation of this map is that the turbo should be decently efficient at around 200cfm with a pressure ratio of 1.8 (i think around 14psi for this guy) which would put me in the neighborhood of 150hpish? Is that true? I've also read that this compressor is good for 24lbs/min (with no map though) which is in the same ballpark right?

Hope this post makes sense

i'm fairly new to figuring these things out.
As for mounting: Planning to use one of these:
