no it is not i have one that i got from work and the exhaust housing is to large (16cm) for the intake side which is 57mm it takes to long to spool and then it is to late its hot and cant cool from there it also takes a adapter to bolt up its larger flange it is not wastegated but you can get a smaller housing from htt it would be about $700 because it would then be wastegated but still not worth it in my eyes because you can a nicer one for a little more money

I've been looking at that one too...It has a big ol' square T4 flange. The rectangular flange like our exhaust manifolds require gets you a 14cm or smaller.

Would it work as a top turbo for twins?

ive been thinking the same thing. i think it would work, if it wouldnt be too laggy... i dont know what the exh housing size is on them, if they have a T4 flange. I talked to a a mechanic today that had tried it and said it had been very laggy.
I can get a couple of them s300 turbos locally for $200 a piece, same for John Deere s400 turbos with 70mm 75mm and 80mm inducers

I was thinking about making an adapter like this one with 8 threaded holes and done!





thoughts?
