Ironically, I had one in the garage, bought it a while back, planning to build a set of compounds with the he221.
Jeemu and the other fins were always adamant that the 9cm turbine was no good, and caused too much backpressure.
As far as the divided housing, F.R.A.S and I haven't started designing/figuring quite yet. It is possible to do a divided manifold on a 5 cylinder, just split one cylinder between the two sides.
How is FRAS figuring out where to put your turbo flange? I was figuring out how to mount the he200wg today and it looks like the wastegate will not mount in the stock manifold position. It puts the wastegate actuator too close to the exhaust. So I may have to hack off the bracket and weld it back onto the other side of the compressor housing. Either that or get a new manifold. For now no intercooler so I could just position it for a straight shot into the w115 intake.
