It has been done before. But what i've heard is that its not able to keep it at 1 bar at higher rpm.

We'll see how it goes.

Its a small turbo and thats asking a lot from it. It may get hurt poor little guy. You should consider BNR turbos. They have good turbos with upgraded internals. They look stock and bolt right in. Im sure youve heard of them. Its what im getting when im ready.

True, after your comment i did thought about it for a sec. But i will get cooling issues then. So that is something i need to figure out first. Maby, if i'm lucky, i will change the cooling this winter but that is depending on the budget.

Oh I know its been done before, just be prepared to have a spare turbo on hand!
