You want RHB5? You can come see it before you buy which is nice.

It's off an older Subaru. VF series not VJ like the WRX's VJ11. I was in a D-series powered EG with one and it did awesome at low-mid range. Felt like it was factory boosted. They're good for 80-250whp applications. What are these fuckers going for these days? Not much. I'll check Ebay and see what they're going for and give a definitive price. I bought it at a junkyard for $75 and pulled it myself. Any turbo there is $75. This one is nice and tight and spins great.

Sounds good. I have a used .48/.42 but I've never ran it and bought it also at the same junkyard. It's off a Volvo. If you can't find one that you've seen run; I can always let you test this one out or whatever.

Hey that RHB5 I have is a VF28. Google says it's off an STi, but I'm not so sure. I ran the part number and is did match with the VF28 which is good for ~450cfm/330whp, so it's a little stronger than a 14b. I thought all RHB5's were the same, but I guess that's just the frame style. I'll get the calipers out and take some measurements to verify. If it's a VF28 it's a much better turbo than the stockers off the old Subies that are like VF12 IIRC. It may even be a ball bearing unit. I need to do some detective work though. Or just buy my baller Holset and blow that D up.
