I bought a brand new turbo off of E-bay. 57 trim compressor, 50AR Exhaust housing, 63 AR compressor housing, internal wastegate set to 10 lbs. Is this too big for a 7afe? All I can get out of it so far is about 4 lbs. of boost. I will post pictures of my setup in the next day or too. Seems to spool up kind of slow.

I actually did research. I checked with my local speed shop who told me to get the size that I did. I then bought one from E-bay that was the size that they suggested. I have been planning this for months and months, and it came down to bad advicefrom my local speed shop. I'm not a professional, but I relied on the wrong pro's. People, beware and always get a second opinion! |
