Ron has great parts. The 1.0 will make more boost than your stock housing. Other than the housing the turbo's he list are perfectly stock (is that an oxymoron??) I still have mine though its still installed if you interested. I might be able to get it off this weekend.

what exactly are the gains from the 1.0 housing? do you actually get more horsepower and torque or does it just reduce drag and make more boost? how bad do the egt's jump from adding it?

Less lag, more boost. Added power yes but not sure how much. many claim a reduction in high end but I doubt it. I will let you know of any change once I get it off. I am hoping saturday I will be pulling the turbo and swapping back to the stock housing in prep for my stage 1's
