    Couldn't tell ya...I'm not a turblow guy.

    They are running them on DSM's and Nissan's...soooo lol, not a Grand Prix. In fact there are no turbo GP's in my area.

    Umm why do you have duplicate threads again in the turbo section?
    Mods need to get ahold of this entire turbo section and combine threads

    Why not pull the compressor map and read it to find out? Then do the math and zing you have your answer.

    I ran one for years and years... made about 430whp with it.... Spool was sinister....

    I ran stock 12cm exhaust... Blocking the factory wastegate flap was cake.

    You would end up spending more on converting exhaust housings than you would on the turbo itself....


    Just cram a bolt, weld, or otherwise get in the way of the factory flapper... It takes less than 2 minutes and zero dollars to block one off....
