It lists the turbo as a T04S 60-1, however, the compressor housing is not a T04S housing (4inch inlet, 2.5 inch outlet, .70 comp. AR). Without measurements, its hard to tell what a turbo will do.

A true T04S (60-1), T04B 60-1, T60-1 whatever you want to call it will do 400whp+ at around 1 bar of boost.

So, 300 should be possible with that thing. If that is all you want, doesn't seem like a bad kit for the price.

Beware of these "Stone Racing", "XS POWER", "Master Power", “SSAutoChrome” jokers. Yes, you get a turbo at a hella of a deal, but you won't have any idea of what your getting. They are Garrett based turbos, but NONE of their names coincide with Garrett names, badges, trims, etc. Seems these guys take buzz words from the import community like "60-1", "T04S", "T70", "T61", etc etc and come up with a bastard of a turbo , give it a flashy name and sell it to those who don’t know any better. That turbo in this particular auction is NOT a T04S (T04S is a comp housing {.7 A/R, 4" inlet, 2.5" outlet}), that is NOT a 60-1 wheel but is a T04B something trim. How do I know it’s NOT a 60-1 wheel? Simple..... all T04B turbos have a 8 paired bladed wheel, while the 60-1 and 62-1 have a 7 paired bladed wheel. Furthermore.. stay away from these HKS wastegate knock off's found on ebay. These may work fine on piston engines with lower EGT's, but on rotary engines nearly everyone I know who bought one of these are having boost control problems cause the heat warps or melts these POS wastegates so they stick. Again, you can get a great deal of a turbo purchase... but you have no idea what your actually getting spec wise.
