    I would try and get more info. 18G and 20G turbos are Mitsu turbos not the VF ones.

    Well, the biggest draw back to any of the vf series turbo's is the hot side, so sticking a mitshu cold side on a vf hotside is not worth it. If you want a 18g or 20g, just go buy them, don't frankenturbo something together.
