BTF,
What about the upgrade you were looking into our turbo?.
Will you be able to do the K16 with the mods you were thinking about.
I have that $1K put away waiting for you to make the announcement.

Cant go too big on the wheel without increasing the size of the turbine spinning it. Otherwise you get a phenomenon called slip, making for a very poor performing turbo.
The middle one looks like it would be within the 15% rule O' thumb on turbine/compressor wheel OD's.
Looks to me like you'll have to machine the compressor housing to fit this wheel. Can you balance the assembly?

Okay, we got a wheel comnig with the same Backwall dia, but a 3.125mm larger inducer. Flows about 6.5 more lbs/min. and won't increase MOI or cause slip.
I'm hoping to have it on the car like next weekend.

Oh yes!
It will have to be bored and reprofiled. Im gonna have em fittin' tight as they can be for max eff. Then the whole assembly is high speed balanced to factory spec. Put back into the box and shipped back to you within 2 days.
