The RS2 turbo, btw, uses the 50mm exducer size housing.  Last I cked there
were 4 flavors of the k26 hot side available (not including the RS2 - it is
not available as a service parts, also not including some of the custom rally
stuff).  The 50mm exducer is a great starting point for a k26based k24 turbo.
 Remember, Porsche got 295lb/ft of torque at 2500rpm out of the 50mm, and it
beats the k2420vt in torque at 2250rpm.
