Anyone seen this turbo?

I just saw this while putzing around. I haven't seen it mentioned here yet. Just curious if anyone's seen it.

yeah, turbo kit for the 1st Gen GS300. Doesn't work on 98+ GS300.

This looks like a turbo for 93-97 GS which doesn't have VVTi. I am not sure how it will fit on a 98-01 GS, but it seems like most of the components are there. The price is pretty good

Like I said, just curious...I've got a 400 so it wouldn't have done anything for me anyway. I suppose for the most part, if it's out there and for the GS, people on this board already know about it. Kudos to the knowledgeable...

One thing I noticed was that it fits SC300 from 93-00.

I wonder if it's smog legal in CA.

Don't think it's CA legal...

Also, there are few members that have been critical of the F-Max kit...anyone actually HAVE this kit?

that turbo looks kinda small too, maybe only make 100HP more... better off to visit toyomoto in florida or XS Engineering, Toyomoto just did a 604RWHP IS300 no prob
