While I'm not familiar with a "generic turbo," I would be very cautious about a turbo that costs 200$.

It is most likely a piece of junk that can't press out more CFM than our cars put out N/A.

If you do a search its not worth it. Just get a t4/t3 built or buy a holset from the JY

Maybe 20PSI, new computer, new 3" VAM, and some porting will make it faster
