Not quite done the final build yet. It's probably a modest 800rwhp or so right now, but shooting for a lot more. Still need to install the aem p&h injector driver I bought. I'll be sure to post here when I have some good results to share...

I wish I had a list of all of my mods...I'm sure there are several hundred. Here's a very old(2001) mods list:
http://bellsouthpwp2.net/p/w/pwpanas/
...but there have literally been hundreds of changes since then.

GReddy turbos kits are among the cheapest available, because their turbos are generally considered outdated/obsolete and extremely laggy for their size. You can (now) get a smaller exhaust housing for the t78 which helps to correct some of its lagginess but it is still a very old turbo especially when compared with some of the new garrett GT35, GT42, and GT47 options...

If you want to see a "pricey" turbo kit, take a look at this one:
http://www.hksusa.com/products/?id=695
...scroll down to the last one on that page.

I don't know of any off-the-shelf turbo big enough to go on a 2jz-gte single turbo exhaust manifold/header that uses an internal wastegate.

Yes, unless you want to try a highly-customized (i.e. much more expen$ive than off-the-shelf) aftermarket turbo setup for some reason. Why do you ask?

I know there is black, grey,red, and white but i dont think there is blue or green in there. a good way to check if its been painted is to look in the engine bay.
