No way, I'm with soul on this one, he should know... he's got the fastest FC here, and lives in Japan, where a lot of the tuners actually know what they're doing. The stock turbo is just too small! The highest you can get from it safely is 12psi with a front mount, and then you're probably pushing your luck anyway. Anything past 12psi is too far outside the compressor's efficiency range, and it's heating the air wayyyy too much.

Soul, what turbo are you running? It's a big T-78 or something isn't it?

he was pushing 20 psi out of it. did 2 runs one day and 1 on the next day and boom bye bye turbo. i dunno what exactly he has done. but from what i can see is mad weight reduction. big *** intercooler. slicks. pulleys. thats all i know of not sure what else i gotta find out though.

slicks might help a little...

20 PSI is waaay over the peak efficiency of the stock turbo, especially the Series 4 turbo. If you said a series 5 turbo that may have been a little more beliveable.

Im not gonna doubt till i see it, cause it can probably be done with some other extensive work. but im not going to belive it till i see it either
