well i guess some of the units are slightly different trims etc. But really no reason to not buy the standard stuff....especially if you're in the USA.

Its actually good until 800 or so, which is similar to the 6466 @FullBlown is using. Id actually love to hear a shops opinion on this turbo on an Fa20

Compare the t51r specs to a gt4294r...

They are kinda outdated in terms are what has been available in the past few years turbo wise..

Honestly, I don't think the FA20 can produce enough exhaust pressure to run more than a GTX35 whatever, since FBM attempted the huge hp on the FA block, the boost came on quickly at 6k rpm...lol

It would make for a great roof-mount, no? You'd need to install a piece of heat shield on your helmet though lol.
