Garrett BB Compressor Housing

I talked with Bob Riley @ Dieselsite about his machined compr housing for the Garrett BB turbo that I recently ordered from Riffraff Diesel Performance. http://www.dieselsite.com/index.asp?...ROD&ProdID=405 He recommended trying it with the stock one first. I may not need it. Machining the relief in the housing would actually loose some boost. More of a mod for extended high boost levels. I told him that he "talked himself out of a sale", but appreciated his honesty. He is a great guy and wanted me to make an informed decision. If I do need it later, I know where to go. Kudos to Bob.

Always nice to save money on things you don't really need. That was good of Bob to tell you this, instead of just taking your money.

Try this one:http://www.dieselsite.com/index.asp?...ROD&ProdID=405

EDIT: I changed the link in my first post to right one, too.
Don't know what happened. It worked fine in my PM to Rick.
