turbo upgrade

I believe these are the two 16g's that Mitsu makes...
TDO5H-16G-7CM2 505 CFM
TDO5H-16G-10CM2 505 CFM
With that said they are TD05 turbos. Our turbos are TD04H. I cannot say for sure that they wont fit, but my guess it that they wont fit with out modification. How much modification I am not sure on.
Honestly I would try to look for a 16T, which is what some of our Volvo's use.

300 bhp is enough even at 280 bhp it will be a flyer and getting power down in fwd is fun with standard power so with 50bhp or more it's a handful and more like having a big bike as feed the power in gently and then once moving can give it some stick.
forgot to mention that if you get over 350 bhp you will probably need to uprate the bottom end and change the rods as above that figure they can bend but it's the torque at low revs that bend the rods so big kick of torgue say 350 lbsft at 2500 revs could bend them as the t5 seems to develop as much torque as power unlike most other turbo cars and the bigger the turbo the high up the revs the spool up will be unless you have suitable mods to go with the turbo.
