This forum is probably unanimous in suggesting to not buy any MAP turbos.
​​​ just to save you some trouble.

same here. I had one that died, sent it for a rebuild, then that one died within a week, leaving me stranded four hours from home. Called MAP the next day and was informed they were discontinuing sales and service of those turbos. The older ones seemed to hold up kinda okay.. but something happened and *poof*. Literally LOL

Ill explain whats happening I have an OG Green its at 27 psi but the wheels hit the compressor housing...still running great am hitting 11.04 with a 1.64 60 ft and trapping IIRC 123 mph. I can either get an ef2.5 compressor wheel thats sold on ebay or just get another turbo. I want to take the car into mid 10s and see what happens.

AAAh. Drag racing. Memories LOL.
I gotcha. Mix and match. Should be cheap. Fix that turbo before you end up with an intercooler full of metal (don't ask how I almost found out the hard way)! Good luck, dude!
