Hoping I can pick up a bit of the spool I lost when I went to the 19cm housing...

Anyone want to install it for me, since I cant be crawling across the to of the truck for a few more weeks/months...

:mad:

No, because you have to machine the backing plate too, in order to fit the 66mm wheel.

If there were more draw I am sure Clay would build a standard H2e wheel.

I would let you for sure, but its not an easy swap. The whole turbo has to come out, and if you have ever pulled a T-4 turbo it can be a bit... frustrating.

Not to mention I think I am leaving town tuesday or wednesday and if something is not right I'm pretty much screwed.

But thank you for the offer!

You can help me fix my washer bottle if you want! LOL

Always forget you SD guys fight the cowl more on turbo R&R than us OBS folk.

If you need a hand with anything just let me know. Probably going to be working most of the day tmrw but I'll help where/when I can.

So does that help spool up, more power? Why not just go with a new turbo?

Typically a more agressive compressor wheel will build boost sooner, give slightly higher peak boost numbers, all at the same or lower back pressures...

A new turbo costs $1300-$3000... A wheel costs $200...
