Sorry Will, just posting what I have seen. You may have good luck with it but I have heard of many failures that are a warranty headache for owners. TN will honor the warranty but it is glacially slow. Just keep your stocker and you will be fine.

Did you happen to look at the turbo maps for the turbo before you bought it? It looks pretty good but it appears their space age bearing assembly is not up to the task. Again, this is a discontinued product.

Run it. It is better than the stocker. Beat it like a dog. Just keep your stocker in case of a warranty issue. It is a decent turbo, many are still running them. Just keep in mind, it is a discontinued item. There is a reason for that. Go over to PSN and do a search on TN turbo to get the details. Bottom line, it appears to be prone to failure due to manufacturing problems. Subbed out if you will.
