The md555 has a number of different types with different ratings, I've got the 76mm 450bhp rated one, think they range from about 380-500

Question is then,what is this rated too??
It looks like a 58mm inlet.

Edit,its only the 400 and above that can have a 58mm shroud

A friend of mine has the 500bhp(capable) MD555 on his 2.5, it made 448@1.8bar on vpower.

I think Jay from Hampshire Subaru made 482 on a 2.35 with meth.

This is the range of the new mdz555 turbo's, 76mm is an option but not needed for 500, pretty sure the old non billet ones are different in power ratings

So it's a refurbished turbo then,which would account for the genuine TD label missing?
