Default What do you guys think about this turbo?

Looking for a turbo for my 1JZ project and found a guy on another car forum I go on selling one that sounds like it might be good for me.

I was looking for something that should work fine on a stock internal 1JZ without having one that'd want to spool at like 4500 RPM like a T04Z I found and happened across this, tell me what you guys think:

Precision SC63 T4 big shaft
P trim .68 turbine 3" v-band (has a .58 housing too but I feel that's too small for me)
S cover with anti surge
Less than 200 miles, just too much turbo for the car he has it on

He's asking $500 plus shipping, I figure that's not too bad for a name brand turbo that sounds like it might be the right size for me.

If you can tell me where I can get a S360 line turbo for $600 with a 3" v-band exhaust housing on it and not too huge of an a/r that it'll take forever to spool, I'd definitely buy that.

yeah if you want something less laggy it will be a 200 series and it will be much more expensive than the more widely available s360 or s366 options. alot of people seem to enjoy the s360 on a 1jz though, but it may spool a little slower than that other turbo, hard to say. get a full 3" exhaust and intake though and it might not seem so bad.

I am seeing s360 with a .91 divided for about 800 new, add a v band will cost like 150 more than the mormon flange it comes with. I am assuming you have a divided manifold that would be the best to help with lag.
