maybe change out the compressor wheel. since its a BB turbo the turbine wheel cant be changed without buying a whole new cartridge. it would have to be something that fit it the same housings since aps makes the compressor housing also. there isnt much room for anything larger. the turbo that comes with the kit is capable of ~500-550hp, you need more than that?
