(a) You sure you don't need an extra rotor to power that thing?

(b) Time for a new intercooler/fuel system/drivetrain

Thats basically the same size turbo I am running, but mine is from bullseye. Far from done yet but you can see it doesn't look that big once you start to get some accessories around it.

What are the specs of your turbo? I still believe that 45R is much bigger "looking" than yours.
