After 87 or so the turbos went from oil cooled to water cooled. I think they are specifying that you need the rebuilt Garrett T3 unit meant for a water cooled system (hence the H2O abbreviation for water). Your car should be water cooled.
My suggestion, blow off the modification you are making, get a water cooled Mitsubishi unit, and have more fun. The unit you are looking at will help you at high speed, but will not help you accelerate and you will have more "turbo lag" time. The Mitsu turbo is better for street driving and getting onto the highway, but will not give you a super strong high end. Unless you are a drag racer or race the car regularly, you need street performance. That is the beauty of the Mitsubishi TE-04.
