I have never ran it but it has everything going against it for decent spool.

XS power-Probably china crap
T4 and1.15 AR- Huge for anything under 800whp

Yep, they are. Personally, i wouldnt go anywhere near this garbage

T61 Turbocharger Supra S13 Skyline T4 LS1 1JZGTE 2JZGTE RB20, Turbos, XS Power Inc.

They make "reliable" turbo manifolds too . A 2JZ mani for only $175 - that screams quality

However, I can't deny they have worked for people.

Most recently one of their BW style 60-1 units with a "stage 5 wheel" on a 82x89mm B series made 385whp on this turbo on pump E85.

Couple months ago my neighbor/friend put their GTP38 on his 2001 7.3 Powerstroke Super Duty. No idea of power figures but it pulls pretty hard for what it is, especially in the "stump pulling" gear above first. Torque will rip you back hard.

Lastly, we have a customer who runs one of their mid size turbos on a new Mustang EcoBoost. We didn't do the install so I forget the actual turbo specs, but tuned and also with a full exhaust/Catless DP, Steeda intake, bigger Front mount and charge pipes it made over 400whp on their turbo and pump 93.

Also, just posting the A/R does not give much info as to size. You would need to provide the wheel sizes/trims.
