Just funny becuase I never had a problem with any standard Greddy turbos.

How long has Sharif been painting his nails? That's gotta be him, I can tell by the watch.

This upgrade isn't advertised on their website. I spoke to Aniel Pagan on aim and he told me about this upgrade. He had no info about it whatsoever EXCEPT it's the best. HTA upgrades are pretty popular with evo's so sharif and i decided to dive head first. Fingers are crossed and results are on their way.

Really wondering if it changed the size of the housing. Changing the wheels might add some, but maybe not as much as a bigger housing. Does your invoice tell you what they did?
