Out with the old

just put in a wicked wheel and a ran by a turbo-master.

here is my old compresor wheel.



How much seat of the pants difference will I feel? How about mileage change?

Probably just a little. I think you'll lose lb or two of boost, maybe a bit quicker spool, probably no mileage diff.

No seat of the pants difference either. Just less turbo surge

I see you have a DIY CAI. What kind of filter are you running? That wheel should not look like that.

In all honesty. long story short, I'm about 99% sure the wheel was that way when I got the truck 7K miles ago.
