I forgot to respond to your post....it's alot bigger than I thought, it really took up alot of room, it has zero lag but I have a bigger motor so I'm not sure how it will do for you....it's ball bearing which is suppose to help it spool faster, if you still decide to do let us know how it works for you....

in fact I bought it last night

I will not install it this while because i should buy the other parts separately to complete my kit

now I have turbo(garret gt45 / 80mm) + wastegate 46mm + manual boost control

so i need Blow Off Valve and intercooler to start my setup

of your opinion whats the fit intercooler and BOV for this setup!!?

thanx
