Kinugawa turbo

Hi! Has anyone heard about KINUGAWA turbos ? Apparently these are manufactured in Japan and mostly popular on subarus. But they do have some turbos good for the FD too. Price are like half the Garrett ones.

Any info would appreciated.

I ran one on my Miata for about 6 months with no problem. I beat on it pretty hard on a regular basis and it held up just fine.

Kinugawa, from what ive been reading are a major turbo manufacturer in japan and there stuff is top quality. Im not sure if they make anything rx7 size though, iv only been able to find gt30 or smaller.
Im more interested in their FD exhaust manifold though, It looks the goods. Anyone running one? Impressions? Pics?

Have also used a lot of their fittings/parts and rebuild kits. No complaints.
