I don't want to buy a turbo. I just want to get the 16g wheel and bore out my 12b compressor housing. Mount the 16g wheel to the 12b cartridge and run it until it blows or until I go with the 90+ and 16T. The 16T is sitting in my basement waiting for funds. There is only a 10hp difference in manifolds according to a different thread somewhere on this site I found by using the google. So I'll wait for the td04HL-16T and 90+. I'll just have my original td05-12b sitting around and thought well wouldn't it be cool to mess around with. I'll put the housing on the lathe and bore it out to fit a 16g wheel and run it on the original manifold until I upgrade to the 90+ and 16T (newer designs although not larger but supposedly better flow for the td04hl compared to the Volvo td05). I work at a machine shop so my time in work isn't an issue since I'll be saving money and learning to be more proficient at my trade while working on my car. The car is being fixed up to be my dd so 15-16psi is all the turbo should see. Just wanted to get better flow for the same pressure while fiddling around on a lathe.
So anyone ever done this before or know how to do it that would be swell. It's called a project for a reason
