Wouldn't be a "bad" turbo for the high reving rotary engine, although it is a turbo that is built "backwards".

The compressor outlet and the turbine inlet are on the "wrong" side compaired to your normal Garrett or Holset.

Not a very good turbo at all. The reverse rotation makes it a bastard on parts, and they don't make very good power either. Also look on the diesel sites and the PSD's have a hard time keeping those units alive under hard fueled conditions.
