The K-16 is similar in size to a Garrett T-25. This is a very expensive piece and there are kits...
from Euro tuners that offers them at very expensive prices more than the APR and PES kits. The hybrid KO-4's are supposed to be an alternative to the bigger turbo kits out there. It will not beat the bigger turbo in terms of HP but it will give a better bottom and in some cases midrange power. It will always be perceived as a notch below the big turbo due to the popularity's perception of HP which is quite obvious on the forum. Presently, there are solutions to get a big turbo to spool up like a small one but its still a working progress from the manufacturers and race teams that try them on the track attempting to make them reliable enough for public consumption.

That pic was taken from the folks I bought the turbo. Unfortunately, I did not have a digital cam..
at the time of install to take pics of the turbo especially next to the stock KO-3 for comparison.

Really, who gives a crap what cmh thinks! Show the pics so we who want a different turbo can make up
our own minds, WITH OUR OWN MONEY! I personally don't care for his biased oppion.
