It would be on par with a 2871 or 2876 or so, considering the turbine is the same. However, it's a .86 a/r so somewhere around the 4.5-6K mark for a good amount boost depending on the engine.

I have a friend who has an STI with that same turbo. 2.5 liter 4 cylinder, vs. 1.6 or 1.8 4-cylinder. He doesn't get full boost until after 4000rpm. It's LAGGY. I would never consider a 3076 an acceptable turbo on a Miata unless it's a drag car.

I love how, instead of the manufacturer's name, those guys just stamp the word "TURBOCHARGER" onto the side. Like you couldn't have otherwise figured out what this large, heavy thing with spinning blades inside it was.
