R85 love it or hate it

I have the R85 and almost done with my rebuild and I'm getting excited to drive my car again.This is my first single turbo, and have never driven a single turbo FD.

Just wondering how this turbo will perform. Is it one of the best turbo you have owned, is there alot of positives about it, what are some of the negatives?

Just wondering what some of you think about this turbo.

Never heard of an R85, who makes it? Specs? T4 flange? Inducer/Exducer size? Pics?

You'll love it! I'm sure you know this already as we've talked about it many times through pm.

Bob, the turbo is a Borg Warner but based as a kit from KG Parts. Go to www.kgparts.com for more info.

I'm not sure exactly what the thing KGParts changed are, but it is close to a Borg Warner S362.
