Secondary turbo replacement

Is it possible to replace just the secondary turbo with something that is a little more agressive to give more high end power and still keep the sequential setup to avoid sacrificing low end torque ? I realize that the replacement turbo would need to mate with the exhaust manifold and I suppose there would be a more noticable transition point, but still, I would think someone has done it (or tried to do it).

Hey that sounds like a great idea. I wonder if Bryan of BNR could do something like that?

Excellent! I have a customer with a '95 and a totally shot secondary. His primary is perfect, having been rebuilt 2 years ago while the secondary wasn't even touched :/ He was asking be about something similar: what can you do for a little more OOMPH. He's got bigger secondary injectors, HKS DP, RB cat-back & shortram intake. Who is this BNR you referred to?

thanks
