One year ago i saw mitsubishi nice turbo in my friends garage, it is from volvo c70 t5 230bhp car. Then i found basically pretty quick std t03 limit. I decided to upgrade turbo and one of my mates did all machining required and welded that downpipe. Last night i first time drived car with new turbo and it feels superb! It spins even when idling and give some throttle. It is running 21 psi currently and it is waiting for mapping. I believe this was really cheap conversion because this kind of turbo costs only 350£ / 400eur and there is not machining even if you can do it yourself. There is project thread in projects/restorations.
I wrote this topic because people pay big money for some ancient "hybrid" t03 turbos.. This mitsu is from 2000 century.

Finally it is 95% mapped and it works pretty fine, some little tweaking with wastegate control.
1-2 wheelspin in throttle and in 3 gear sometimes in dry. In 3-4-5 gear it pulls absolutely amazing over 3500 rpm and up to rev limit. Last night in wet it was too scary to drive full throttle..
I have good tyres and suspension & lsd so i think there must be over 200bhp.
Mitsu turbo sounds pretty sexy with 21psi of boost
