Why wouldn't you go with the upgrade to the Garrett GT28 with the larger housing?
Thats a very good question.

I guess that the 20G would potentially be good for more power than the GT28RS with 0.86 housing but only once you are trying to push BIG, BIG power numbers, at high PSI (20+) and building your block. Apart from theoretical final HP number, the Garretts being ball bearing are a better option for our engines so you'd be pretty silly not to upgrade to them.

Nothing wrong with MHI turbos though. Plenty of Evo's run them on high boost and would smoke our boosted cars all day long!
