The deal in buying turbos from big truck shops are several different part numbers can be the same turbo, but the compressor housing is in a different position. There are several trucks the turbos go on so the outlet is in just a hair different spot, that is why you have several turbos with the same description and price, just different part numbers. If you look at the pics on the site you gave, you can see the difference in the way the housings are clocked.
Basically a S-400 is a S-400, you just have to make it fit. There are some companies that will trick out the bearings, shafts, wheels, and housings but are more expensive.
The difference in the $1300+ turbos is, they are waste gated, and that is a whole other bowl of worms, on how you want the turbos controlled.
