Could work on a smaller cube motor at moderate power levels. I wanted similar ones for my 305 but thinking going single rear mount now

Re: What do you guys think of this Turbo?
I dont have much experience with the single vs twin debate, but from everything I have read and searched for the street twins behaved better and provided a better boost curve and spooled faster.
But I dont know, I was debating a single rear mount, but as I said after research I chose to try smaller rear mounted twins.

Re: What do you guys think of this Turbo?
Turbine side is small. T3. I wouldnt use them in larger motors that turn some rpm or making bigger power. Wont match up well
Compressor side is big enough to make decent power

Re: What do you guys think of this Turbo?
If everything is sized right, singles spool well. For rear twins it complicates things more with twice as many pipes but could prove to be good for space and still get good power/response
