I know... I got it because it was a very good deal and I couldnt pass it up. I'm going to put it on just to see how it actually does, most likely I will be pulling it and putting the 4202 back on.

Didn't Jesus have a T88 on his car? I think spool was 7k or something like that. I know there was a video of the car at night somewhere.

There is a HUGE difference between a Greddy T88 and a Garrett T88. I assume Jesus had a Greddy T88 on his Eclipse, since he had one on his Supra too.

Yes... His was a Greddy T88.

This one is pretty damn big for a 4 cylinder but I would just like to see how it does. From what I know and have "heard" it is similar to Rau's old turbo before he went smaller.

I like the 4202 a lot and the plan is to run that but it wont hurt anything to try this.

Rau's current 80mm turbo spools at about my revlimiter.

The 4788 is a realy big turbo, even for a supra. I would think based on the ARP head studs and headgasket choice you might want to try the 4202 and keep the boost low. Its kind of cool that the "4788" looks not to much bigger then the 4202, just get a GT5591.5 and call it good.

I ran 42psi last year on the 42 with ARP's and the OEM head gasket with no o-ring. Never saw any problems.

If I could find some A1's I would be happy, but right now I do not have any. So there for they are not on my modification list. :)

I know Marco had a few sets awhile back, maybe I should get in touch with him again and see if he received and still has a set in stock.
