I hear its a great turbo..I got the stock turbo with my set up..I just put in the wicked wheel..I want to try the turbonetics turbo.. I hear nothing but good..but with only 80k on this turbo.. I decided to use it for now..but over all with a stock turbo..I did see lower EGt's a little less whistle but I can deal with it..not much gain in seat of the pants till the higher end..you get a little..changing the 15* HPOP to a 17*will make a big differences..that's my next mod...
