the only reason people modify the wheel is because their turbo is damaged and they need it fixed.....

Michel and Jason both modifed their wheels. I am hearing that this gives the potential for another 150HP. I have not seen or tuned one of these...yet. Soon.

I hear from Rob @ Pineapple he has a customer/friend who is running a daily driver with 635RWHP with a T78 (modified I remember) one of his ported engines.

635rwhp, was that at around 30psi??? I dont want to run that much boost. 25 is enough for me. My turbo needs a exhuast wheel so im thinking about upgrading other things on turbo. NEVER BUY A USED TURBO!!! plain and simple.. anyways, Right now im concerned about pump gas. I want to make around 435-440 at 15 psi. anybody know if thats possible with decent afr???
