Stock turbo Compressor upgrade

Edit as per request-

The upgraded wheel is worth 15-20 hp EVERYWHERE under the curve, no penalty in boost threshold if you simply bolt it on, no programming.
It can support 40lbs/min max at 250kpa. I have gotten it to hold 20psi out until 6800+rpm before it falls off from turbine pressure (forces the gate open)

The turbo will make over 30 psi when asked, but again the high pressure will run out fast as teh rev's climb. Just not as fast as stock.

The turbo can support 50-60 more HP at the flywheel than the stock turbo.

Here it is bolted onto a CBSS, no programming other than rev limit.


Official Pricing: $829.99 with a 1-2 day turnaround on the work + shipping.

I BUY CORES!!!!

Sounds good. What about swapping larger exhuast housings for more power up high, too much of a trade off?

BTF, I'm look for a stock elbow that come off the top of the turbo so I can send it to be chromed. Mine is a daily driver so I can't do without it.

Are you thinking like a 16g/18g sized wheel? Im hooked on autocross now so anything big and laggy is outta the question for me.

I told the boys somethin' around a 2871 or so.
Im hoping like hell we can get a garrett turbine wheel in there The turbine wheel will be several grams lighter and should keep the same boost threshold, but with a faster response due to reduced MOI.

Check the other thread I posted some Vids of 4th gear pulls up a slight incline from 1800-2000rpm on to 4k. 21psi is had by 3400rpm. Not so bad.

About 4-600 rpm later. It will never have that 2000rpm grunt the stocker does, but a stocker also wont run with fury to 7400rpm either.
Trainsient respose of the BB is much faster then the ETC that's for sure.

But our little BW mongrel we have in the works is more about being a sneaky pete in stock appearing classes and the ease of direct replacement. I would be happy if it packed another 75-90hp into the casing, with faster transient response, and a similar boost threshold (within a few hundred rpm)
