I had this with the C20LET i bought. Turbo was feck, so i enquired into a replacment GM one. Nice £600 od plus VAT. A Garrat hybrid (think it was a T3) was only £750 brand new!! I know u need more complex stuff, but if ur thinking of tuning it later, is it really work spending nearly £700? Ur never gonna make it back, and as i say, if you want to tune it when you ahve the money, you may as well save hard and buy the better available turbo.

not bothered about tuning, its quick enuff as it is anyway, not even gunna turn the boost up (it dont even have a performance zorst on it)

toyotas dont run on garetts, they use there own turbos, so are alot more expensive than garetts, so aint as cheap, for a hybrid, ur looking at 1.5k at least
