Then look more.
Name a specific turbo instead of a large company that makes hundreds of them.

It's a little ass turbo, fun on the streets on a d-series if your not looking for much power. Spools quick as ---- but will loose its efficiency around 6000 rpm on a d-series. Would sell the bitch if I were you. -Nick

what about on my dads automatic d15 (d15 or something i never checked) i might make him a little setup....he said he wants like 20-30 more hp

Re: IHI TURBO?
 

lol, good luck with the auto. but an ihi rhb5 would definitely be good enough for his needs

Re: IHI TURBO?
 

I like my rhb5 on my y7. It's not some huge numbers snail but for a d15 or d16 first turbo kit they work fine and I used my stock injectors 2 step colder ngk's and a bluebox and the engine idled like stock and didn't even feel the turbo cause it spooled super fast and pulled pretty good. Felt like a car that was turbo'd from the factory as in you know it's there but nice power but nothing to brag about.
