For rhd owners like myself with stock crushed outlets, going to rb outlets which are more than just silicone as I found when cutting the end to fit, to see wire inside, made a discernible difference.
But I have the fantastic AliExpress chinesium turbos too..

I'm certainly surprised to see Rob almost arguing against his own outlets here, even if it was applicable for stock turbos, the manufacturing quality is really good.

Most of these arguments are based around LHD cars, there’s no doubt the RHD outlets are a different animal and thus an entirely different discussion piece.

FWIW I had RB outlets and mmp outlets. The RB were significantly superior all around. That being said, you want best best silicone outlet, it is RB in my opinion. The best aluminum is the PSP. Pick what you want. They are small money like inlets at the end of the day. The VTT silicone and aluminum outlets seem inferior, granted I never had or would touch the VTT product for a variety of reasons.

None are large enough to hurt imo and if you are at this power level you probably have 3" intercooler inlet to throttle body ID anyways.

Why has the subject of this post become '

'
is someone trying to take attention away from the original post about the China turbos (and how good they have been???????)
