This has gotten off track, will you start another thread so it stays ontopic so ppl don't have to wade through a bunch of stuff to find the eBay stuff?

Staying on the Ebay track, it would be the 25G to make 500hp. An 8cm hotside would help with spool but might choke you on top and start to creep. External w/g would be a must! (Though I dont think it even comes internally gated) 10cm would probably be a better option though

Compare that Kinu to a 3076/3582 or billet SC62XX and see the price difference. Plus the MHI centers are uber durable and if you do manage to break it theyre cheap to rebuild. Pricey, yeah for Ebay but reliable, durable and cheaper than a Garrett option (though I like Garretts)
