Default Tomioka turbos?

Anyone running one of these in the UK? I have a feeling they are similar to Kimugawa and Kamak who put together turbos in Taiwan. Saying that I have read very good reviews of Kamak & Kinugawa & not too sure about Tomioka.

Specifically their Twin Scroll TD05-20g for use on a JDM blob 2.0litre engine. Works out about £900 new from the USA or similar price in the UK from EDO Performance. Looking for approx 450bhp/400ft/lbs & good spool, not sure if this is the one for that?

And please dont mistake these turbos to junk ebay turbos, yes they are made in Taiwan but research on Nasioc etc & be strangely surprised! lol

The wastegate and info plate look suspiciously like the kinugawa turbos on the other thread. Bit of a merk up though.

OK I will speak with him


Agreed I've read few posts on the Kinugawa turbo too and some are impressive,but risking those money on the turbo which at the end will be laggy,as you know over in USA many people doesn't run EJ207/205,mostly EJ255/257 and spool up on 2.5L is and will be better like on 2.0L
