People often ask us what kind of gains are possible of the IHI turbo vs the Garrett 1446.

We had this lovely 145PS 595 come and see us the other week. So we thought we’d show you an overlay of a stock 180 Comp vs this, just to illustrate the difference.

The tuned IHI (blue lines) makes stacks more power and torque than the 180 Comp (pink lines) right up to 4750RPM. From that point onwards it’s pretty much level. The Comp makes a couple more hp at 5500RPM but it's barely a difference.

In a rolling race or on a B road, this car could be considerably quicker than its stablemate, and for anyone wondering if it’s worth tuning an IHI equipped car, I think it's pretty clear.
