18G UpgradeThis turbo is built from the factory turbocharger. It uses the same housings and TD05 turbine wheel found in the factory turbo. It uses the larger 18g compressor wheel found in many Greddy turbochargers. The 18g wheel is rated at 600cfm and well suited to boost pressures from 10psi to 25psi. On Sale - $495

which one you guys think will be a better street/strip turbo for my CA18DET, i am turbo shopping and looking at options..

you think i could get them to change the specs on the T3 from JGS to get more out of it? i am looking for about 400HP, rebuilding with JE pistons etc..

or should i keep looking for the T3/T4

Garrett T3/T4Compressor Wheel: 50 Trim TO4ECompressor Housing: .50 A/R TO4ETurbine Wheel: 76 Trim T31Turbine Housing: .63 A/R T3

i have gotten quoted about $650 for this combo with a 360 degree thrust bearing from JGS Turbo. but externally wastegated.. is this overkill or ideal for the CA18DET???

help me out guys..
