Ok i know this turbo is over kill, like no other but I found one at an extremely low price. How bad would the lag be on it?

How big of wastegates would I need to run it? Im sure ill probably need two.

Edit: I only plan to make 400hp on my car.

how good of a deal? you can get an s360 for 650-799 and itll make your 400whp much much better

First, the 80mm compressor is a bit large for the 83mm turbine wheel when paired with a rotary. If you arent pusing the turbo hard that wont be an issue.

Second, the turbo is much too big for your power goals. You will have unnecessary lag and it will make the car less fun to drive. For $900 you can find a smaller turbo that will better match your power.
