fwiw the 63mm is a great turbo and can and has put 700 to the ground before on buicks.. IT is not your problem unless you are over that.. what is your application/output/goals/dyno info etc.?

it may be as easy as sending it back to precision to get the turbine wheel that they use on the larger 74mm. turbo's installed.

Here we go again. He never said he had ANY problem. Stop putting words in other peoples' mouths. Only that he was thinking about going bigger. FWIW, he has a fully built motor, lowered compression, and could actually benefit from the T-74.

settle down dude.. if he was completely satisfied with how his set up was then he would not care to upgrade anything now would he? sheesh. i agree that he could beneifit from the 74.. my suggestion is that he look into only upgrading the turbine wheel.

i forgot to mention it directly on my first reply but precision may be willing to trade in your 63 for the 74 and some cash. i was about to do the exact same thing with mine.. their upgrade cost is dependent on the condidtion of the returned turbo.
