Trying to find a second hand RHB2 from what I have found is nigh on impossible. But there is a few reasons why I dont want one anyhow. One being that they are a journal based turbo.

Garrett do a GT1231.... its ever so slightly to big id have to clip its wings which seems a waste. Easy enough to do though since you can rebuild Garretts. (comp 29mm , Tubine 35mm. Bearing type is journal) ( to clip wings you split the turbo up....build up weld around the in and out....machine out the inside to the new measurements you need....then grab the in and ex prop and cold grind to the new radius.....CBF)

IHI make one that is about 30% smaller again. The RHb serries turbo was replaced by the new RHF serries. The smallest in this line up is the RHF3 which has an inlet of 19mm and an exhaust of about 26mm. From what I understand you can rebuild these too....but I havent found the rebuild kit yet. Not that I could kill a turbo in 10 months without antilag and some decent jooce...The best part is its a bally turbo....quicker spool.
