I was wondering if anyone on NICO was running the "Disco Potatoe" on their SR? If so tell me about the responsiveness and power of the turbo itself. And lastly was it worth it? This is all because i am planning on getting one sometime in the future and just wanted alittle first hand feedback before i go jumping in to something of this expense. Thanks for your help guys.:D

Ive got it on my 92 SE-R. VERY much worth it! I went from the Bluebird T25 To the DPT...Im only running 10psi currently but the responsiveness is truely amazing! Its like the throttle is connected to the boost.

If your on a budget you can get a brand new s15 T28 for about half the price and its pretty much the same turbo.

Like $850 shipped (at least thats what i got mine for), its not as powerful, but its bolt on and is a good alternative.

I sell the DPT for 1150 shipped...so its not alot more( was thinking it was double or something:)...But does require a bit of fabrication, depending on the manifold you use of course.

What is a good Exaust manifold on the market that is good both price wise and performance? And Jspec Tuner, where did you get yours at? pretty cool.
