Need advice on Airesearch, KKK, and IHI turbos.

Information on the naturally-aspirated KA24E and KA24DE engines.

I am thinking about getting this even though I don't really have any of the other parts yet, it seems like a good turbo. I dont know anything about Airesearch and have never seen a turbo by them, I emailed the seller asking about what wheel stage and all that and he said he didn't know. Has anyone ever dealt with them before?

There also seem to be a number of KKK and IHI turbos on eBay new or rebuilt for very inexpensive, the only think I dont know if the flange type (have no idea) will be a problem getting a manifold to fit it made? Thanks.

IHI's are used on Subaru's, KKK on Porsche...so I'm sure you could get a flange for them, as for the AIresearch turbo's...they have been making turbo's for a VERY long time, I think they started on airplanes. Sorry I dont know any more :)
