Not sure I think its just a more readily available turbo ,I did think about that option myself but couldnt find one that didn't need rebuilding due to drifters

Lol yes , seeing your ad made me wonder what was involved and which turbos fitted , I know nothing about turbos yet but it sounds like a lot of hassle.

That's really poor advice.
With knowing more about how much heat the turbo is going to be pushing out (need to know more about the turbo, I.e. How efficient it is for the boost level that you want to run.) you just can't say 1.3 bar will be fine on the stock IC. It certainly is not using the standard turbo and stock IC.
Both the Gtec 1 and 2 are designed primarily with the stock turbo in mind. The additional advance of the Gtec 2 will mean cooling needs to be adequate to prevent detonation...been there done that.
If you are going for a different turbo to stock, then keep the boost down, and get the car mapped to suit, or update the cooling and get the car mapped properly for 1.3 bar or so.

The 200SX s14 turbos are an upgrade but it's a lottery as to the quality and you'll need the 5 stud to band adaptor. There's more details in this thread
