don't bother. the upgraded compressor wheel is nice and all, but the 5th injector bit is useless. all it does is flood the motor, doesn't actually add performance.

I had a feeling you might know, PSI chick. I have heard about the upgraded compressor wheel. Does the larger compressor whl. cause more lag, since it has the capacity to push more air? It/the setup can't be reliable anyway, can it?

BTW I wasn't entertaining the thought of using this stuff, just thought it was curious. I'll probably switch from s2 to s3 and spend the extra $ to do it right when I am ready. Just another bogus ebayer, huh?

A good 50% of ebayers are bogus nowadays. Its one of a few situations:

1. You pay for something and never get it
2. Pay for something and its not what was featured
3. Your told its a part made to fit your car and its bootleg
4. They try to scam people into thinking things will add performance gains to their car.

And I could go on and on, I think it would've caught my eye too, on the curiosity scale.

the upgraded compressor wheel that most companies are selling is basically a big 16g. our turbos basically have a small 16g (not completly accurate, but a ballpark way to think of it). the larger compressor wheel will cause slightly more lag, but not really noticably so. the turbo spools now around 2k, with the larger wheel that might be increased to about 2200. plus you'll only be able to push a couple more psi through the turbo due to the contraints of the housing. it's not really worth the effort to change it out anyway, you can get a whole new turbo for a lot cheaper than the cost of a wheel conversion.

Ebay blows, and if you bolt Ebay to your car you can boost to 50psi!
