What are your thoughts on this Turbo?

I've been searching a bit without success but I have the option of getting an IHI Turbo from a 2.2 Mazda. From what I can see, this turbo spools fast and can withstand gobs of boost if I so choose.

Any thoughts on it?

I can get the turbo and 390CC injectors for a good price.

Input please

hey big, i saw ya say you'd take someone's T25bb if they'd part out their kit they have for sale. If you're gonna go for a small turbo like that, i'd go for the T28bb

yeah, I'm just saying that I could get this IHI for VERy cheap, but I don't know enough about them.

I also heard that stock RSX injectors are only 330CC meaning that it could only hold up to 5.7PSI is that correct? My buddy did the mapping for me. He also said that injectors usually only run about 80% efficient, so anything more then that is hurting them.

I'm going with RC 440 CC RSX upgraded injectors probably
