lol, we are always kicking around idea's for new products... but what we feel makes CBRD different is we concentrate on a few specialized parts... this was a product we wanted to develop for the 8/9's... we are now working on some specialized parts for the X and GTR...

We may re-analyze the idea of building a larger variant, but this turbo fit my goals perfect.... im extremely happy with what we've built.

It's not really porting, we are machining the contour of the housing to allow the larger compressor to fit. I only know this because it's me in the video and I edited it also. Glad you guys liked it...

I bet you're happy, it looks good and makes decent power! Still, we need something bigger and better!

There is definitely more material that could be removed to fit a larger compressor wheel...... There is a lot of time involved in the research and development of new compressors. We may prototype a larger wheel in the future but that's not for me to decide I'm just an employee.

by the way, thanks for the shout out Chad. I feel very special. hahhahahah
