i dont have any cats and have the down pipe mod with mine. had a greddy mechanical boost gauge that would show boost up to 1.9 bar another mechanical would show 1.9 bar as well. two different digital onea show 28 psi peak boost. ill have to connect in the diagnostic and take it for a blast and see what the actual boost sensor reads

Iv already stripped off the turbo. It is a second hand unit and came with 3 months warrenty i hope he lets me keep it and gives me another unit for now. Iv been looking on ebay at compresson wheels and they all have an inducer that is smaller than the exducer. How come urs is the opposite way round.

nutron who would you recomend for the bearing and if i supplied them with a bigger compressor wheel would they fit that on and balance it. Do turbo technics replace the compressor with one off a bmw 330 d
