I was told it was a good/big turbo, but I have only had superchargers and I am not very sure what makes one turbo better than another.While I am at it, it has a 52mm throttle body on it, should this be upgraded?
Also, he has the stock MAF and an after market larger MAF but he says there is to much turbulance in the larger one because it has no screen, should I stick with the stock one, or go with an oftermarket unit.
Thanks for your reply
i don't know about the maf's but i would get a larger throttle body and i'm in the same boat as you...actually a little worse since i'm an n/a guy...i researched a little about s/c's because i was about to get one, but i never really was that interested in turbo's even though they make more torque by the way i don't really know what he is talking about with turbulence...our maf's aren't screened..

by the way i don't really know what he is talking about with turbulence...our maf's aren't screened..I think I will sell the 52mm for a 58mm.....Thanks again.
yeah i don't think i will...unless i get tired of this h/c i'm putting in soon....then i'm going with a 408 and either a twin turbo or an ati setup...i'm so confused on forced induction because i've been into n/a mostly
