those turbos are really small and wont make that much power but spool very fast. it whould make a nice, fun daily driver for city driving.
but like i said, tunning and the right settup is the key here.
look at the turbo projects section. i saw quite a few IHI RHB5 settups. if you want to know how much hp theyre making, just pm them.
i think that Whitey even did a twin IHI RHB5 settup if i remember correctly.

That was jeffy
ihi turbo is small but from what I have seen works great and is a fun car. I also like the smaller kkk turbos on the D
