if you dont' plan on rebuilding, i wouldn't go with a large turbo if your gona be pushing 22 daily... not sure exaclty what the max hp is on the bottom ends but with a larger turbo pushing 22lbs. . . i duno if it'd be able to hold it

whats wrong with the 16g? Id learn how to tune/get fast on that before going bigger.

and yet id stay away from that kit, the turbo should more like 800ish, and any tubular manifold for that price is going to break the first time you heat it up, youd expect to pay more like $1000 for a part like that.

I wouldnt push much more than 18psi on all your stock eternals daily... And a 16g would be perfect for you if you dont want to rebuild your motor..

By the way.. Your motor would never handle 30 psi the way it sits.. 22 is more realistic..

DO NOT GET ANYTHING FROM SSAUTOCHROME!!! PERIOD!!! I just read about these guys. They are manufactured in CHINA! With little to NO quality control. The compressor housing is EPOXIED together NOT welded as it should!! Here is a LINKY for the scoop on these LOW QUALITY turbos. BUYER BEWARE! You have been warned.

No you're NOT screwed. You haven't been driving it right? Replace it ASAP! Get a GOOD quality item. The turbo and wastegate are crap as well as the BOV if it came with it. ANYTHING from XS Power or SSAutochrome are CRAP!
