In addition even the Rz ones, I've never been able to find a dyno that showed they make more power or have a more broad powerband than the stockers...even at the same boost levels. This is based off the assumption that the twins are healthy and dont have bad turbine wheels from apex seals going thry them.....which is prob what the problem was if someone had stock twins that were "laggy"

Mine are the Type RS/RZ twins. You're right--you should verify your potential purchase with the part number stamped on the turbo housing.

Black on the inside of the compressor housing. Wheels are differently designed and smaller than US spec by 1 mm.

Do you know what that part number on the housing should be if they are RS/RZ twins?

Are yours brand new ?
Price?
Are they identical to the ones Ari is selling ?
Who's fan will you be next year ?
( I assume DC will go kick butt at LeMans or some series where he could easily be the top driver.)
