greddy 15g -> Mitsubishi TD04H-15G turbine. This **** spools hella quick on my D16Y8 motor and if you're not too careful, you may actually hit 1-2 psi when you are only 1/3 part throttle!

if your going homemade, try and grab a big 16g from the evo viii's most of those guys are starting to upgrade, or from the srt-4's both of those cars are fairly new so i'm sure you could find a turbo in ready to use condition
