If i was doing it, i'd go for even less drivable and laggier setup because Garrett does offer larger units.

Ball Bearing Garrett GT5533R (aka GT55R) - 91MM : atpturbo.com

When I first saw this, I couldn't tell if Raul was serious with this question or not. I'm still not sure, but it depends upon his understanding. He has no location in his profile, which actually would help, and it is the person's ver 1st post but.......

It very well could be the "eBay" version of that GT45 (Hinmi-Racing, CX-Racing, etc) in which it's not remotely the same measurements as a real GT45, but because they are wrong, some people get them anyway to try for something like 500whp.

Even the eBay versions couldn't make that on a Rotary. So, stay away, even if you did want 500whp on either real or the fake version.

I'm really going to close this thread for now, as it seems as though this is a "Troll Posting", and don't want it to cause an infection later.
