yah I beleive that buschur's RS made 20whp by proting the BIg three (exhaust mani. o2 housing, and turbine housing)

More importantly I think his mod path is the ultimate way to go if trying to stay stock turbo.

Buschur RS is the only place to get a port and polish done? I'm not thinking of sticking with stock turbo for too long.

Hmmmmmm,

I'm not going to upgrade anything for awhile, other than new tires and a clutch/flywheel since those are maintenance items .

However, I think I want to stick with the stock turbo so going to a 10.5 hotside and porting and coating everything should be a nice gain and make a great street setup... Probably get ~360-375WHP or so I would guess with more power across most of the powerband...

Now just gotta find a bunch of money, heh.

20 should not be difficult if you have supporting mods.
You must have a 3" DP to take advantage.
