Yeah IDK about that turbo. I've owned a few TD05H 18g's including a pile of ---- Greddy and a Forced Performance unit, and I was utterly unimpressed. The Greddy lasted all of 3 days and munched itself, but that's to be expected with a Greddy turbo haha. The FP TD05H 18g sucked ass as well. I actually switched to an E316G and made better power. The 18g compressor wheel is notoriously inefficient, but maybe coupled with the larger TD06H exhaust wheel it is a better combo. I'd still go with the 50 trim though, as they're the kings of pump gas, and are ultra reliable and easy to maintain.

Suit yourself, but the 50 trim is better for pump gas. If you insist on a Mitsu turbo get a 20G. An 18g is a bastard child of suck. Good luck.
