It would include at least the H-trim wheel, a T04b compressor housing, and the backing plate. Then you would need to have a turbo shop balance it. Probably easiest to contact a shop and have them help you set it up.

I've heard nothing but good about the BNR hybrid turbos: http://bnrturbos.com/2ndGen.htm

the h trim set is a little hard to come by, even on ebay. though it must be said a S5 hybrid H trim ended on ebay a week ago at $400. i would also look at the other hybrids in the same area. ReTed also has t04e hybrids up there as well, i was lucky and just picked up a t04e "57" for $100 off of ebay and am making my own hybrid. but once you get above the v trim wheel i would suggest using the aftermarket compressor housing and backplate as well instead of the stock ht18 stuff

Is it hard to do that swap take the backing plate off and every thing or it just comes rite off and would the biger housing clear my intake manifold or am i going to have to cut stuff

it will probably be easiest if you buy a complete turbo and dismantle it, finding t04b compressor housings is not hard on ebay, the backplate and specifically the h trim wheel will be (someone will probably put up a link if they find onethough now that i have said this). as it says on fc3spro's (reted) website, some grinding is required for the bigger t04e/b and 60-1, my housing is going to be a very tight fit from the mock up i have done, and it looks like i might bust out the dremel just to make it a little easier. you can try to source it out. turbo power in Cameron Park, CA said the h trim wheel is $80 and to make it fit in the ht18 housing would cost around 150 and labor so........
