Dusted Comp. Wheel

[pwrdby4d]

I replaced my compressor wheel today w/ a stock replacement. My boost went from 11-12 @ WOT to 18-19 @ WOT, all stock engine. I didn't know the vanes were that bad until I took the housing off. I've been chasing boost leaks the last couple weeks. The previous owner obviously had a bad air filter leak. I now have a an AFE stage 1 sitting in the air box. Anyway, here are the pics of the impeller I took off.

Only a few hours from start to finish, including cleanup. Only one of the bolts on the housing was a pain to get to. It was a fairly easy job. I did it with the turbo on the engine.
