By the time any of you see this, I will have attempted to buy it off ebay because its cheap, but I suppose I can always resell if you don't think its vq30 compatible:

BorgWarner(IHI) 51T-32 "T3/T04E" equivalent
cold: 46 trim .7a/r
hot: stage 2 .6a/r
with internalWG and downpipe elbow
for ~$250 (thats my max bid anyway)
sold by a place called blaast performance, anyone heard of 'em?

Internal wastegate is not the best option, and the 46trim at .7ar is a bit odd for a maxima setup.

can you define 'odd'? not aggressive enough? too slow spooling? i didn't get it by the way, ended at $251...

he means that its proboly smaller tha .7

when the numbers are that veg that usually means there are no numbers and its just a guestamate

ive never heard of any company manufaturing a turbo with a turbine hosing of .80 the only ones ive seen are .82 .83 and .84

i have seen t4 compressors with a .70 A/R but they always had a bigger wheel than .46

if that sellers specs were real they should look more like this

well, he calls his place a "custom turbo shop" so he puts together weird things and sells them cheap. I believe the specs, but that doesn't mean they'd work well.
