It is just a budget Borg Warner S475 with a 1.32 exhaust housing.

Borg Waner's are the way to go. Budget or no budget

I wasn't planing on it in the beginning. But after thinking about all the work and fabing required to keep the exhaust divided to the housing. Plus the exhaust housing is so big on the new turbo... 1.32

Those pipes and turbo look like they came from a big rig.
