If its the turbo I think it is you would be going backwards fitting it up to an RB20 in my opinion making it a downgrade as opposed to an upgrade.

Yes, outright power will increase but the lag associated with it is horrible and the power delivery is very harsh making it a pig to drive on the street. The engine will be asleep up untill 4-4,500rpm (if your lucky) then BAM! it all hits at once and its hard to control.

It is able to make well over 200rwkw but you will need cooler,exhaust,fuel system and management to make the most of it but why bother with a dinosaur of a turbo?
