since we had the discussion about turbo sizing... mine is the size of an 18 g apparenty, very similar to say the least... the larger APS is more like a 20 g and they are all ball bearing...

you scared me... i would have been upset had i paid for a "big" 16...



**** edited cause of idiocy..** rallyspec makes a 16 bolt on for the wrx.. thats what i meant... mine is a bb turbo, it looks cool at least.

yes i suppose that sucks... i dont know if i am associating these turbochargers correctly, but, the greddy "bolt on" for the wrx is supposedly an 18 g.... thats what im comparing it to... ive heard of that turbo making the same power i did at a higher boost level... and my peak power was at 16.7 psi it looks like...

about buying a DSM ~ im looking, 1g AWD, no exceptions... maybe a GVR4...

GVR4's kick ass!! they are 10 times more of a sleeper than the WRX could dream of being...unless you set it up with a 2.5 rs hood

even still, most people dont know the difference... ive heard plenty of people ask why "that wrx" doesnt have a hood scoop...


and gvr4's do kick ass... i cant seem to find too many "cheap" i think a 1 g awd will do...

TD05H-18g<ball sweat
TD05H-17c<dingle berries
TD05H-19c<ticks

They are all relatively inefficienct and a 16g or big 16g wheel in a turbo is a very potent set up on any 2.0 liter engine and can support good amounts of power.

I dont know why people try to do baby steps and go from 14b->16g->Big16g->17c->18g->19c->20g.... these people need to quit being sissies and go for the good shit instead of wasting time: jump to the 20G, you wont regret it.

and dont let the fact that youre Intake manifold sits backwards and has no plenum get you down Ive actually been planning on reversing the intake when i build my EJ22t so that the TB faces forward for use w/ a FMIC.

you could always get a Galant GSX: a 2.4L NA AWD Galant. and then just either Turbo the 2.4 to get some monster torque and low redline, or swap in a JDM Galant RS motor like i was fixin to do... till i found out the prospective GGSX was beat, old, crusty and converted to FWD
