They are using a different compressor housing with a 4" inlet, to do it right
the inner portion is ported and smoothed into the compressor wheel.  That
isn't a "rare" turbo per say, something I have basically on the shelf, it
would be better suited to a VR6 or V6 motor due to its size, or a really
aggressive I5 that would spool above 3500rpm.
