Looks like a nice package, but personally, I'd be leary of the clipped turbine wheel. That's why i went with the .55a/r turbine housing and stock wheel...

from the atpturbo site..

" Clipper Turbine Wheels
· When an angle is machined on the turbine wheel exducer (outlet side), the wheel is said to be 'clipped'. Clipping causes a minor increase in the wheel's flow capability, however, it dramatically lowers the turbo efficiency. This reduction causes the turbo to come up on boost at a later engine speed (increased turbo lag). High performance applications should never use a clipped turbine wheel. All Garrett GT turbos use modern unclipped wheels."

how much is it?
