Mitsubishi Turbo
So, after bouncing back and forth with MHI and Performance Motorsports INT I have finally gotten an answer about where the turbo system is sitting at that was revealed at SEMA 16'. They are going to be sending me updates as they come and I will post them here. The last email I got about the turbo was as follows:
"At the moment they are working on the tooling for this new turbocharger and they expect first finished parts at the end of spring." https://youtu.be/ZNW0mD8oul0 video from sema 16' for those of you who don't know about it. Was first posted by ChicagoTommy so I wouldn't know about if it wasn't for him so thank him for the initial push.

I just talked to them on the phone yesterday as I had been having trouble sending emails via their website. Dude said the same thing, most likely an end of spring to mid summer release date, no idea on pricing currently.

Thanks for contacting them guys! Even though I am at least a few years out from a bigger turbo this will be exciting to see what others accomplish

I wonder if they've done any testing on the LTG with it and found what needs to be improved to accommodate the turbo. Ie fuel pump or injectors etc.

I'd imagine it to be similar to the EvoX stock frame turbo they produced. Any tuning/fueling would be handled by the aftermarket. |

It's the right thing to do.
I will be updating this thread as I'm emailed from MHI and PMI.

As far as I've seen...nope
Edit - Did some digging the TF06-07 is a thing that's out now just doesn't have a turbine housing applicable to the LTG Emailed PMI in regards to see if they're working on the housing situation
