GCG ball-bearing hiflows for 1jz questions-plz help

Does anybody know how much these puppies cost??
Anybody running either the gcg hybrid turbos (ball bearing hybrid hi-flowed standard 1jz turbos) in question or something similar? (such as std turbos with steel wheels or high flowed std turbos)
I'd really like a bit of solid info on what power they are making with what other mods and what the spool up and actual driving experience is like.
Anybody have an opinion on which is the better set up out of HKS T3G's or these hybrid hi-flows? I'd imagine the HKS turbo's would provide slightly more top end, the gcg's providing good top end with slightly better spool up?
Thanks.

I emailed GCG about hiflowing my CT26 off my 3sgte. They quoted me at $2500 for it to be ball bearinged and hiflowed. I also asked them what power the turbo would put out and they said it would be rated at 700hp. Also take in to account when buying or hiflowing that u'll need an exaust manifold to match.
I hope this helped.

Perhaps the supplier will answer your questions?

I've emailed gcg but as it's the weekend they havent replied yet, thought someone might be able to tell me now.
Still looking for answers and power figures etc on the steel wheeled std turbos/manifolds and hi-flowed std turbos.

I think they were around the $4500 mark a while ago - not sure if that is still the current price though.
For that money you can pick up a second hand jap single turbo kit  Thats where I would spend my money.

I went for the HKS T3G's mate. In the process of buying the set Ender had posted on toymods now.
Seems to me like the best of both worlds, power and response.

update: Heard from GCG themselves that the BB internals fitted into the standard turbos (customer must supply std turbos) costs a whopping $5.5k
To me that seems pretty much insane when you consider the other manifold/turbo/wastegate combinations you could have for this kind of folding.....
