The much larger exhaust housing allows the turbo to make more boost with a lot less back pressure. It's the back pressure that creates high EGTs and stresses the turbo. I need to make a few runs with my new gauge to see what the max back pressures are. Unfortunately, I didn't have the gauge when I had the stocker on it, so I won't know what it was before. I do know that my EGTs are WAAAY down compared to before. I was able to hit over 1500, and now I'm only getting into the 1300 range max. So a 200 deg drop in EGTs, and the ability to make more boost safely is what you gain.

Compressor side is the same. But a lot of us put the ATS compressor housing on that helps out with surge issues. Van turbos have supported over 400 RWHP, dyno proven. 430ish is what I've seen.

turbo of a different color
the turbo i got on this motor has a two piece exhaust up pipe "T" it goes to a square flange on the turbo and the intake and exhaust are a 1.10 A/R ratio so what could that do for a motor? looks strangely similar to this one seen at dieselsite,

could it be a factory "holset style" turbo?
