They must have there A3 maped then,I haven't spoken to them in a while although there is a few variants of the turbos.
They are a garret with a custom ehaust housing(very well made) I have one on my Audi

It's not being sold to the public untill being completly tested I belive(some time of yet)
spoke to Owens yesterday and jabba approached them about doing a hybrid turbo ages ago but nothing was finalised.The guy with the 4wd corrado has got one fitted and he's running 550bhp with a sprinkle of nos.It seems roughly the same output/spec as Bills.

The Corrado mentioned is using a tubular manifold so I doubt the Jabba one will flow as well. On the Leon racecar in the Combe Saloons, which runs the biggest Owen IHI/Garrett hybrid version on his Jabba exhaust manifold, on std 1781cc on largeport, it made 440bhp @ Owens from 2bar boost.

FP Red is cheaper, as is Green, as is SuperZilla from Deadbolt...
seeing yours is topmount your options are wider.

buy a fp green/red off bill caney, as bill has proved the max this hybrid(largest) can run is a real 440bhp. Wonder what jabba are saying it can do?

whether or not its a comparison as the car being sited as 550bhp does'nt run the cast jabba manifold setup, but a home grown tubular manifold, which is likely to be significantly higher flowing than the convergant jabba cast mani (which was never designed for such high flow rates)

The 2bar ran on the leon race car from the owen hybrid on stock 1781cc motor (largeport) was with jabba exhaust mani. Previously he ran PE1820 like mine.

I suspect manifold is a contributor to higher power from higher less lossy flow.

The FP series and $$ make them significantly cheaper.
Owens one is very nice unit, and will require some removal of cylinder head to fit on Jabba manifold. Top mount and no worries, but then again FP series also fit nice on top.

I don't believe for one minute that the hybrid can do 550 manifold or not.I believe owens figures though and they sound right,a proper gt35 with all the bells and whistles kicks out 550bhp at 2+ bar of boost.
