Yes, you can install our Kit in a day easily. It is a pretty easily install if you are good with cars.

w2....Externals cause slightly faster spool, and tend to control boost better. The install should take you, assuming your new to it, but decent over all, 4-5 hours while hanging out and drinking a few beers, or 3-4 hours if you crack down.

No one is working on that. The stock turbo turns in the opposite direction to 99% of the turbos on the market. There are no good reverse rotation wheels on the market to upgrade with. Turbochargers.com tried a wheel on the compressor side that was geometrically bigger but it was tested and was not better than the big 16 stock wheel.

Did you read the thread about upgradeing the stock turbo to the larger exhaust housing from a previous generation EVO? If you want to stick with the stock style twin scroll setup this may be a good option for you.
