Jeremy is sending me hin intake plenums and spider, but that was before htis all happened, I was just planning for the future. I think though like I told Jeremy, I'm gonna have to pass up this excellent opportunity to upgrade and just rebuild it for now.
Big Poppa Pump- I gotta thank you for the offer on the wheel, but I was informed it would be worse than later model surge, so it looks like I'm stuck buying a new one, but again I relly appreciate the offer.
Clux- you're a life saver!
Reps all around!! Sorry Tenn, I gotta spread more around before I hit you up again...

do you think it would be easier to do the whole swap ... or just rebuild the turbo?
Clux is sending me his rebuild kit, but if I'm gonna do that I'm gonna go with a WW, as I was informed that a stock wheel on my smaller housing would cause worse surge than you late 99 and up guys already deal with.

I just ordered a WW from Dieselsite.com, and Clux has the rebuild kit on the way, so hopefully I can get her out, rebuilt, and back in on friday, NLT saturday.
Should I need to get anything from the dealership, i.e. new band clamp for the down pipe, o-rings. etc? The last thing I want is to need some small thing and have to wait for it to get ordered.
Thanks again everyone for the immense help!

The better half would divorce you over a set of bellowed pipes? That is the permanant solution.
