What turbo actually is it and where did you get it?

Also, what are your current mods?

Sorry to tell you but you really wont have that big of a gain from that turbo. Granted.. it is nice.. but in no way are you using it to its full potential

That website needs to have more information.. and i think that is a rip off price for what it is.

Im not tryin to give you a hard time man...

Ok thats a better price.

You still have a long way to go before you get the supporting mods for that turbo

Are you recirculating your blow off valve yet?

Default RE: just installed my new turbo..

i was thinking the same thing but the site says it can hold 350+.... so i duno. if you aren't familiar you will ned a few things to get some more power out of it:
exhaust
bov
fmic
ic piping
boost gauge**
wideband
tuning device
injectors
fuel pump
rr fpr
and 1500 is WAYYYY to high for that turbo!!!!!!!!!!! you can get a FP3062 for 1300 which suports 650whp.
